Answer 1

They're basically brine shrimp (sea monkeys). They'll live for about two weeks.

Answer 3

Mr.x is wrong. they look nothing like brine shrimp, and they don't act the same. they are a little finicky when they are young, but over 1cm in length you will have no problems with them. i had them about a year ago and i loved them- they swim around gracefully and very quickly. do it!!! put those eggs in the water( use bottled mineral water though)!!!

i hope i have solved your anxieties about these relatives of the horsehoe crab. x x x x x x x p.s mine lived for about 3 months- not 2 weeks lol
