well first Triton is so close to neptune that neptunes gravity is pulling it closer and eventually Triton will explode and become a bright ring. And it is the only moon in the solar system that circles in a direction opposite to the planets rotation. The reason for nerieds erratic orbit is tritons backwards orbit. It disrupts many of the moons also

Can you see neptunes moons at night?
Not without a very good telescope. Triton, Nereid and Larissa might be viewable, but the other 10 would only be viewable with a ground based observatory.

What is a Triton electric shower and how does it differ from other showers?
A 'Triton Electric Shower' is a shower that can draw on a cold water supply and heat it on demand. It differs from other showers in the fact that it can use cold water and heat it itself, instead of relying on a boiler to heat the water first.

The mass of Triton accounts for 99.5% of the total mass orbiting Neptune making it far larger than any other natural satellites of Neptune. Also it is Neptune's only spheroidal moon, with the other moons being similar in appearance to asteroids.
