This was actually my first sea monkey kit, and I was positive that would die and I would be wasting money. As soon as they starting growing though I immediately became fascinated with them. They are very interesting to watch but they are a few things that must be done to keep them alive. Even though they aren't dogs or cats, they are still living creatures and deserve some care. You MUST aerate the water to keep them alive. There are a few ways to do so, but I find the most effective to be buying a Million Bubble Air Pump. This works quite well, and is definately the best choice to aerate the tank because it is simply and quick. There are other methods mentioned in the guide book, but one way that I have found to be VERY useless is swishing the water around with a spoon or mixer. This simply stirs up the existing water, adding no additional oxygen . When I have tried this within a few days of using this method they died. Using the other methond however, I have had my monkeys for years very succesfully for years. Other things to remember is to never feed too much but do feed atleast once a week, don't let the water level get too low and when it does need to be topped off, use ONLY bottled water. Always read the quidebook and remember to be careful ALWAYS when handling the seamonkey tank. I hope you all have found this review to be useful, but I have definately found this product to be a wonderful success and would totally recommend and back up this product to anybody.

Excellent, Outstanding, my daughter saw one of her friends had one and she's been begging me to get her one since. Her mother wouldn't let her keep a pet, so I got her these. They provide you wih 6 sea-monkey eggs and you can name them and get insurance for them for just a dollar, and if they die from old age you can get a replacement free.

No other pet out there is as easy to care for as these little creatures!They're not really brine shrimp, but a genetically modified version if them. No anticipation for these little guys to hatch, for they are truly instant life!! Requiring only that you feed them once a week,These are great pets for ages 8-108! On top of everything they are kind of cute in their own ugly little way. (let it be known they are pets not "disposable fun" or "toys" for the children; THEY ARE LIVING BEINGS!)
