Thames & Kosmos My Discovery: Giant Triops, Twice as Large, Breed, Feed, and Observe, Educational Science Kit for Kids, Live Learning Resources About Prehistoric Crustaceans, Age 8+

I brought this for my sons as he loves all these sorta things we have many successful experiences with sea monkeys and and the caterpillar to butterflies but these was one that he wanted to try we have brought all extra items and followed the step by step instructions twice now and still nothing My 9 year old boy is so disappointed I don't recommend at all to anyone unless you want to waste money

The media could not be loaded. I managed to hatch 5, but only 1 survived. Jason must have laid a few eggs as Freddy appeared after a couple of weeks. Love my boys to bits

Looked everywhere but there were no eggs. They're supposed to come in a tiny pot that says eggs, but there wasn't one. This product is hit and miss.

The media could not be loaded. After alot of patience and lots of different sets I have hatched a triop. I put a quarter of the eggs in and all that hatched was water fleas, put another quarter in and this guys hatched! You have to make sure the water quality is right, I used spring water and kept a heat light on 24/7. Very pleased to have finally hatched one. There's everything you need in the kit apart from the light. Good value for money and these actually hatch!

Bought this for the giant triops.. Comes with a lot of things to use to grow them and a book filled with information. Dont use the tank it came with because i have my own. Only used a few eggs & two hatched for me. But they have hatched because i used a water heater and had a bit of light from the window all day coming in. Dont think they would have hatched in winter time for me without a water heater... Still dont know how the hatch rate will be in summer. Glad i bought it & they are really a lot bigger then normal triops.

Says approx egg count 50 in instructions there was barely 20, off which only 1 hatched. Other kits I've had no issues hatching. But other kits have tons more eggs and are cheaper.

Complete waste of money, I have setup everything right, the water is at the correct temperature, and the eggs have been in the water for a little less than a week now. I also know this is no fault of mine due to past experiences with creatures such as triops. Disappointing, would try and get a refund if I could however I'm not sure I'd be able to...

I Bought the triops to give a pet did everything right I even got a fish tank for when they are big enough to go in the fish tank and nothing hatched I will not be buying from these again
