Are triops sold like sea monkeys??

Sure, you can buy packets of eggs:

...or kits such as the "Aquasaurs" one:

We have some growing at school o-o they're so weird and cool at the same time! They kinda look like a horseshoe crab and a shrimp got together and made a baby ^^;;

Is it weird to want to add dechlor??

i believe (mine did anyways) to use distilled water, so no dechlor is nessesary. as far as triops, they hatch the same way, but have short livespans, from 4 weeks to 6 months i believe. i think someone here wanted to add them to their fish tank

well it said to use bottled or boil it, then I added the powder. My guess is that did something. I waited 24 hours and then added the eggs.

The little guys are crawling all over the place.
