Unless the fish are really bigger than your triops the fish might get eaten.

Most fish eat shrimps. Triops are shrimps whichever way you look at it. I'd guess Triops would not do too well or live very long with most fish.

You can expect most fish to eat shrimps even if the shrimps are called 'Triops'.

Can tropical fish be fed triops?

The Triops may very well eat the fish. I wouldn't try this. Even if the fish did eat the Triops, would you really want to do this considering the fact that a Triops has a shell? Seems like instant indigestion or worse to me.

No fish live in wells.


Can you keep triops with tropical fish?

I have tried, and it doesn't seem to work very well. The triops usually get sucked into filters, or eaten/picked at by the fish. That doesn't mean you cant, it just means that the way I tried it did not work. If you kept them with very small fish, in a tank with a sponge filter (where they cant get sucked up), that might work better.

What are the white clear things swimming in the triops tank?

possibly daphnia, baby triops or fairy shrimp. If you have just hatched your triops it is more likely to be fairy shrimp, but if they are over a week old they should have eaten all of the fairy shrimp, daphnia can become a problem when triops are well fed and dont eat them, but they wont hurt the triops

Not all sharks have live young. Some lay eggs like most fish do but to answer your question, no, sharks are not the only fish that give live birth. Guppies, mollies, swordtails and other members of the family Poeciliidae, as well as members of other fish families, give live birth.

How do you breed triops?

Well, usually Triops will just breed if there's two of them, because Triops are mostly hermaphrodites, meaning one could breed with the other, because they can be either male or female. Triops will lay their eggs on pretty much any object, from rocks to plants to substrate. Triops will have visible eggs, just like a lobster would under it's tail, triops will generate eggs in the same area. What I do is look for the eggs, wait for them to disappear, and remove the two (or however many) adults you have, because triops who are in the same area will eat the eggs. Then wait for the eggs to hatch, grow, and start again. Keep in mind most of the eggs will die, and only a few will hatch. I hope this helped!!!
