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!!!
