When Sea Monkeys attack!

Pros: Let's start off with the pros haiku:
I've grown you from eggs
Sea Spirit, you are so cute
Boiled, you'd be good.

These little guys come in a decent package. It is glass, so watch it. It comes with everything pictured. Good stuff for a new family of pets.

Cons: Here's the cons haiku:
That P? Is an F
Please do not pee on your pets
They would be so sad

My box has three steps. Mark, put and peed. Peed? No! That's feed. Feed! The gravel is small, the plant is tiny, but still, good price. It does not have as many eggs as pictured.

Other Thoughts: As a kid, I loved these. I have had a set in my office for a while. I really like this batch of them. The bowl is really neat.

Bottomline: It is glass, so keep that in mind for the little ones. It does not have a cover, so spills can happen. It has a good space that will prevent that, though. Mine hatched as advertisted and I could not be mopre happy with them. Late at night, however, I feel as if they are forming a takeover of me. I hear them plotting, but when the lights come on, they shut down. The big one, Jerry as I've learned he is named, is the leader. He thinks that by taking me out, he can rule the household. If this is my last entry, please feed my cats. I hope they are not attacked as well.

Just excellent.

Pros: This is excellent. I just bought them because I was skeptical and thought that they would not work or anything. I had to see it with my eyes, and I did! They work like a charm! In three days you have them all swimming!

Cons: No cons so far, except that you must guess and look on the net for instructions. There are no instructions on the box and the little that is printed on it does not give any info. A tiny spoon for the food would be a nice touch. I have troubles to make the food get wet and sink into the bottom of the tank for them to eat.

Other Thoughts: None so far.

Bottomline: This is cheap, and it works as expected. I just made a video with some kind of tutorial (basically showing what I did).

Pros: Complete Sea Monkey Set including an air pump and little aquarium decoration.

Cons: The end of the airpump is not a proper aerating stone. It is just a fuzzy polyester ball. The gravel it came with was not coloured, just brown. Sea monkeys might get stuck in the gravel and die.

Other Thoughts: The tank it comes with has a painted piggy face on it. It was unexpected. Instructions are lacking, but you can use the sea monkey instructions from the web

Bottomline: Good startup set for sea monkeys. The tank has a stable base so it won't spill too easily.
