CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Customer Rating:
Summary: Get Triops instead.
Comment: Sea monkeys can be fun, easy to care for, and educational. However, there are lesser known pets that are arguably more fun, much more educational, and just as easy to care for. Triopses grow much larger in size, are more interesting looking (they have three eyes!) and have more educational value. They've been on earth for so many millions of years, sometimes they are described as living fossils.
Plus, they're better for impatient kids. When they're still growing they double in size every day.
In short, this summarizes the coolness factor: Sea monkeys are just brine shrimp. Triopses will eat brine shrimp.

I gave this toy three stars because it's still basically a good product.

Summary: A real Dud
Comment: I ordered it and it got here quickly. I took it to school and told the students all about the wonderful things they would see. I followed the directions to the letter and guess what??? Nothing happened... no sea monkeys at all. Everyday the kids would dash in to see if we had sea monkeys...but alas there were none.
It was extremely disappointing!

Summary: Sea Monkeys ok
Comment: I bought two basic sea monkey instant life packs. The one small glass bowl I used, I added aquarium rocks & a frog trinket. I don't think this worked well, because after they hatched they didn't live long. The other small glass bowl I used, I just added bottled water. They hatched and are doing fine. They are a few centimeters, and swim all around. The water gets kinda murky from sitting, but I don't want to remove any of it for fear of sucking out a sea monkey, so I will add some bottled water. I missplaced the food and hope they like fishfood. Overall its an ok aquatic "toy". I think the most exciting thing about it waiting for them to hatch. I have had them for about 2 weeks, and will write back if anything exciting happens with them.

Summary: Fun pet for first time or experienced owner
Comment: I've always wanted Sea Monkeys, since seeing them advertised in magazines when I was a child. A coworker has some on her desk and I got so enthralled by them that I bought a kit for my friend and myself. It's been really fun to watch them grow.

Customer Rating:
Summary: What's more fun than a barrel of sea monkeys?
Comment: Sea monkeys can be great fun, but can also be a great deal of responsibility. When deciding whether to bring sea monkeys into your home, you must carefully weigh the pros and cons, and also do your research. As with any pet, the more you know, the more you can enjoy your new companions' company.

The benefits of sea monkeys are plenty. You'll be amazed at the number of sea monkeys who hatch from the eggs stored in the tiny packet. It just goes to prove that old cliche true, that good things do indeed come in small packages. Sea monkeys are easy to grow and easy to keep in the smallest of homes. Sea monkeys are also lively and cute, providing you with hours of entertainment as you watch them swim around.

However, nothing is perfect. Sea monkeys continue to grow for as long as you keep them alive. They start out small, about the size of the head of a pin. However, as you continue feeding them, they will get larger and larger, making their features more prominent, and allowing them to gain strength that their smaller bodies would be incapable of. It is important to make sure that your sea monkeys don't grow too large or too strong, as there have been reported incidents of sea monkeys who have grown too powerful to control and too large to contain.
