This species is probably a breeding form of the "normal" Triops longicaudatus. In contrast to these, however, the body shell of Triops longicaudatus (red) is transparent, which is why the animals appear wonderfully red in colour due to the translucent red blood.Quantity: basically about 100 to 250 eggsSize: max. 9 cmTemperature: 21 - 26 °CLife expectancy: max. 3 monthsTriops cancriformis var. Beni Kabuto Ebi (red)The red cultivated form of the European summer crab Triops cancriformis probably comes from Asia and has therefore been given the name "Beni Kabuto Ebi". Keeping and breeding corresponds to the original species.The original form is brown marbled. The red Triops lack the brown colour, which is why they appear red due to their body fluid. However, if you look closely, you can still see the marbling. As juveniles, like all Triops species, they are still quite pale. The strong pinkish-red colour develops only with age.Size: max. 7 cmTemperature: 20 - 25 °CLife expectancy: max. 3 months

Even if the water looks clear it can be contaminated. With bad values diseases or algae can appear in the aquarium/pond. To maintain a healthy aquarium/pond with conditions close to nature it is important to check and adapt the water values regularly. For each water analysis JBL provides water tests in the form of quick tests or colour change tests. These determine a certain value or several values in one go. With these water tests you can recognise algae problems and negative nitrate, nitrite, potassium, magnesium values etc. Why test?The well-being of aquarium and pond dwellers and the growth of aquatic plants depend to a large extent on the pH level being kept as constant as possible. The pH level can also affect many substances dissolved in the water. Fluctuations in the pH level are definitely to be avoided.
