Is this a normal Triops habit? & how do you tell if they're dead?

First of all, please don't answer my question asking what triops are, Google it if you don't know. But anyway, my main question is, I moved my triops to a new tank & did proper care with it (adding some of the new water to their current tank so they get used to it, read proper instructions online). Anyway, I gave them some pebbles in their tank, they like to swim between the nooks. They seem to come up to the water more during the day, but when I come home from work at 11:30pm, I normally don't see any swimming so I just switch to their "night time" light that came with the tank. Is this normal for triops to do this? And another question, how do you know if a triop is dead? Will it float up to the surface like a fish?
I've been to that site, doesn't help with these questions.
