Do triops eat brine shrimp?

In the wild they eat plant material, small bugs and pond creatures, and even each other if food is scarce. If you are raising triops at home you can basically feed them anything organic. Chopped up vegetables and other kitchen scraps are good choices, or you can simply feed them a commercial fish food, like Betta fish food or shrimp pellets. You can also throw in dead bugs, spiders, etc and see if they will eat it. Or as the previous poster mentioned, you can even feed them grass. If you need suggestions or specifics here is a link to a very good triops feeding guide, including how much to feed triops, when to feed triops, etc. http://www.triopsguys.com/triops-feeding-guide-78/
