Description
Aquasaurs (or Triops longicaudatus to be precise) have been around for a staggering 350 million years! The reason they have survived so long, is that their eggs can lie dormant in suspended animation for twenty years (yeah ok the math doesn't add up, but we imagine they can do twenty year leaps), their eggs only hatching when they come into contact with water. Well now you can hatch and raise real prehistoric creatures at home.
The tank is made from a lightweight plastic that firms up when you add water, then you simply add the eggs (you get about 50 of them) and within days you'll be growing little pre-historic creatures - for real, now how cool is that. Ours hatched after two and half days and probably think that humans (actually not sure they think much) have enormous heads as we all keep peering into the tank to check out how they're growing.
