Triops! I had those! I loved em.
O, gawd, I had so much, I can't remember it all..... what I remember most are my Fire Ant "Hive" >:) Those guys were awesome. I would feed them live insects and watch them shred it. I would make little clay sculptures and put it in their tank as scenery(i didn't use an antfarm). Sometimes I would make damaged buildings and such. A little city for the fire ants to roam around in, and little hiding spots to put the live insects and watch the fire ants try to find it. I miss them :( Then a few years ago I bought Starcraft and the Zerg reminded me so much of them (in a mindless, ruthless swarm eradicating all in their way, way.)
I had Creepy Crawlers and all that.
I was a huge fan of Dinosaurs and Insects and Reptiles and Deadly Creatures when I was a kid. Dinosaurs, not so much now, but everything else I still have a strong passion for. I bought all kinds of models and experimentations of them.
I even had these little rubber insects that came with goo. You would insert the goo through a hole in their side with a plastic serynge (sp) and mess with em.
I had a T-Rex that came with a little guy, and the T-Rex was made so you could make it "eat" the guy. Shove it down it's throat, then it had an opening in it's stomach where you could take him out.
and that's just scratching the surface. gawd, I miss those days..... and my fire ants.....
