Schylling Sea Monkeys Kit: Live Pets, Aquarium, Food & Water Purifier - Ages 2+, Unisex - Biology, Observation, Exploratory Skill

Bought as a Christmas gift for the grandson. He was amazed and amused watching his little friends come and go. They were easy to start and take care of. The container was of good quality and did not leak. They were a good value for the entertainment. Didn't last a long time, but long enough.

The original purchase was a fail but I still had the tank so I got these and was very disappointed they didn't hatch by 7 days and I did distilled water I made sure temp was good the salt ratio was good so on day 10 I went to go dump them out n I was like what is that? I saw little tiny TINT SPECKS floating around n I'll be damned they hatched!!!!I was so excited!!! Now they are a month n a week old n doing great thriving n making babies!!!! As a girl growing up with sea monkey as pets all the time I can say buy these all bad comments on here are from people who probably did NOT follow directions properly.

2 hatched out of the entire starter package, only 1 lived past the first week. I was a stickler on directions & care. My son and I are very disappointed in both the high priced product (cheaply made small plastic container) & the gimmick of the eggs "producing thousands of hatching live eggs". I shouldn't have to pay an additional $5 plus shipping for another pack of eggs not 3 weeks after the product was set up. If I could give a zero rating I totally would.

My girls came across some old package of sea monkeys that my mom had for years. They were interested in them and super excited so I told them let's find the sea monkey tank. Found these and said what the heck. So I read reviews and bought them. They are lots smaller then the original sea monkey tank but still great. They came in a plain cardboard box and inside were 2 pink tanks. Wish I could have picked the colors considering it would help to tell them apart. We have had them for a week now and their sea monkeys have hatched and have been fed once. They are growing nicely. The girls love them. I would buy this again but hopefully with the option to actually pick a color. There are tons of little sea monkeys. One of my daughters water turned a light yellow after dumping the eggs in but it kinda cleared up.

First batch of sea monkeys only lived for a short while - had to order another pack of eggs from the (very difficult to contact) seller (Transcience LLC). Learned that the water needs air - I added air by using a turkey baster (ideally daily) - bubble water for about a minute or so. My son loves the little guys... happy with my purchase.
