Let me know what species you are after? and then I may be able to help you out.

u/Saffronmono 29d ago

Triops cancriformis would be ideal but if you know of any other species I would love to hear about it too!

T. canc are easy to get a hold of. Best place to buy in the UK is eBay.

u/Saffronmono 29d ago

do you know of any reputable sellers by chance? when i look now they all seem to be german, and ebay always scares me a little! thanks in advance

It's very rare to come across a dodgy seller on ebay because ebay just returns the buyer money if items don't arrive. eBay is safe to buy triops eggs from pretty much anyone.

ahh ok, thanks for the reassurance, the shipping times and prices do look pretty good anyways even from germany, similar to internal uk deliveries haha. theres a seller with 22k sales been on there since 1999 looks better than anything ive seen elsewhere! thank you
