triops are just big sea monkeys, They are incredibly easy too look after, I persuaded my mum too get them for me after showing her how easy they were to look after.
If your mum isn't letting you have them tell her this;

Yes. As a matter of fact i have some growing in a jar right now. They are fun little creature that can survive through several years in their eggs.
Triops are ancient aquatic shrimps; they possess gills and not lungs. The gills colapse when not in water, and are basically non functional. So the answer is no, triops cannot breath out of water.
yes they are
yes triops are very good beginner pets because they are easy to take care of.
If you have sea monkeys in one tank with triops, they will eat each other.
Most of the times when you buy your triops they come with the food. So you won't really have to worry about the food for a while. Though when the food runs out you can order it online at littleaussieproducts.com. And if you are really interested in triops and sea monkeys and other instant pets they also have them on this website for sale..
Yes newts can eat Triops. Care needs to be taken with smaller newts, that the Triops arent too big. Larger newts like paddletails will have no issues with larger 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.
yes it can because triops are cannibals.
Yes, this is because triops are racist, and the females tend to be darker.
According to Wikipedia, there are ten recognized species of triops, and according to "rainbowaq-triops", there are at least 15 known species of 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!!!
They like alodea or amazon sword plant
