It took more than a week to hatch the eggs

Update: The eggs took over a week to hatch but they finally hatched and are getting quite large now and new ones are hatching all the time. I was about to throw out the water when I looked closely and saw very small creatures swimming. First assessment: The eggs have not hatched. I've bred sea monkeys many times in my life so I know what to look out for and this time none of them hatched. The packaging said it was harvested in Hong Kong, so I think that might be a big reason why the eggs aren't

My old friends are back - and they're fine!

Just like when I was a kid, only this tank had a red base. My little monkeys never lived long when I was a boy, but these playful creatures are very wealthy. I remember you could put a flashlight under the cover which was cool but it was battery operated so it burned batteries. That was a few decades ago, before rechargeable batteries, and I'll have to see if there's still a disposable lighting option. A tip: be sure to aerate the water by pouring the contents of the tank back and forth from a…

Give them the best time in science kits and toys

Reviews about it are everywhere so I really didn't know what to expect but I was bored and we need no more real pets. I used distilled water as suggested by another reviewer and followed the directions to add a water purifier and wait 24 hours. Then I added "Instant Live Eggs" and nothing. It was super lame haha. I left the aquarium alone to sit shamefaced on the kitchen window sill arguing about getting real fish. Then about 4 days later I looked in the tank again and it was full of tiny sea…

The sea monkey is not a cat

I really like the sea monkey. I'm buying sea monkeys for my office at work and raising money from a colleague to buy them. A believable story! EVERYONE loves sea monkeys! Make the office a happier place. More camaraderie. The only reason not to give five stars is that the sea monkeys are dying quicker than expected. Very sad. I operated on a sea monkey. Something is stuck to the shrimp and I successfully remove it! Also a true story! In any case, I can highly recommend the Sea Monkey. Everyone…

Easy to get started and fun to watch.

I'll be the first to admit I bought these because I always wanted Sea Monkeys as a kid but for some reason I never got them. The video was recorded on day 5 after egg laying. There are quite a few little boys swimming in the water and they are doing great. I have used spring water in their tank, kept my hands and fingers away from the tank and placed them by a sunny window during the day and I hardly move the tank. I also aerate them every other day for about 20 seconds using a small air pump…

  • Heavy Duty Finish

Mine worked (long review!)

WARNING: LONG REVIEW I used to have sea monkeys, probably when I was in first grade. I remember my dad throwing away food, how I had a big tantrum and ignored the sea monkeys for a good three weeks, and when I came back and found a little lonely sea monkey in the aquarium. After we showered him with love, he died and we threw it all away. Now I'm in high school and thought I'd be responsible enough to take care of some brine shrimp meant for little kids. I received the package on February 11th…
