Death of our Pet Triops

I regret to inform all of my readers that our family's pet triops has died.  He (or she) lived a "long" healthy life and had much enjoyment swimming around its tank.  I looked up the lifetime of a triops and found that a typical lifetime is 8 weeks and can live as long as 14 weeks.  Ours lived about 7-8 weeks so it had a typical life for a triops.  I went to feed him one night and he was floating upside down near the bottom of the tank.  I'll miss you buddy!  :-)
