Well.... My kid got a gift, grow your own triops kit. I'm reading now the instructions and the whole thing sounds complicated, it is supposed to be for kids, I'm helping but kinda don't want to screw it up, you know grown ups are supposed to know it all lol on a net there are so many things written with completely opposite info, so I'm a bit confused.
Say I'm going with a description now, got a natural spring water, setting it all up with heat mat and full spectrum light, but I'm thinking these guys are around for like forever, how sensitive they are? I wanted to use same water I use for everybody, but it says no water conditioners or declorinators... It seems tarantulas are way easier then these guys lol

any tips or advise on kids stuff? They should sell these kits with a memo - for a advance exotic keepers only lol I have no idea how anyone with zero knowledge of exotic keeping can set it all up the way they say it needs to be done. I'm about to look for spare thermostat here lol well not really but the thought was there. And my kid is all about that other kids in her class had these and nobody was able to raise and she is so confident we will be able lol
please help!
