    It took a couple weeks for my first Sea-Monkey to ...It took a couple weeks for my first Sea-Monkey to hatch and then a couple more for my second to hatch. A couple more hatched after this. And then the two larger ones had babies and I have probably about 20 Sea-Monkeys altogether now. And my water turned green after I put the eggs in, but that is completely normal. Just make sure you aren't feeding them too much because if you do your water will be cloudy. (the two larger ones are at the bottom right corner and you can't see any of the tiny babies in the picture) 4The eggs took over a week to hatchUpdate: it took over a week for the eggs to hatch, yet they finally did and now are getting quite big, and new ones keep hatching too. I was just about to throw the water out when I looked closely and saw very tiny things swimmingFirst review: No eggs have hatched. I've raised sea monk eys many times in my life, so I know what to look for, and none have hatched this time. Package said it was assembled in Hong Kong, so I think that may be a big part of why the eggs don't hatch. 3The aquarium is great....the actual sea monkeys, not as muchI actually purchased this to have a temporary habitat for some frog eggs and tadpoles. It worked great for that - the little magnifying glasses were super helpful for kids to get a really good view inside the frog eggs!However, after it was no longer being used for that, my kids were interested in growing the actual sea monkeys. I personally remembered multiple disappointments as a kid attempting to grow sea monkeys, so I paid very close attention to the instructions and followed them perfectly. After about a day, we had visible sea monkeys! Three days later....all gone.So - if you just want the aquarium, this is a good tiny aquarium. If you want sea monkeys....well, maybe watch youtube videos instead. 4DraaaaaankIf you're drunkenly purchasing items on Amazon right now; this is a must. They arrived in about 2 days and I set them up. They grew so large and began mating and having babies all over the place. My boyfriend spilled them and I currently only have one pregnant female left in the little remaining water, but it's great. Such a well worth it, drunk purchase. 5Best Experiment ever.I wanted a tank full of these little guys, did the math, and purchased 6 of these long ago. I set up a small tank, filled the packets, waited my time, and with a little luck had an entire container filled. Given my knowledge of fish was limited back then, and the nitrates probably what ended their tiny fishy lives over time, it was still extremely fun to have and play with. I would and am considering restarting the project again. 5I'm naming all of them Sam and every Sam is awesomeI got my sea monkies yesterday, and after purifying the water and letting it set for 24 hours I added in the sea monkey eggs. Its been about three hours since then and they've already started to hatch. I happened to be studying them while some of them were hatching, which is neat. I honestly didn't expect for them to hatch this soon, or that I would get to see them while they hatched. I'll try and give updates for at least the next week, but so far my little sea monkies seem to be doing well!The second day after they've hatched and I have a lot more sea monkies! I no longer have to use a microscope to see them, and they all seem happy. :D 5Easy to Start and Fun to Watch... I will be the first person to admit that I purchased these because I always wanted Sea Monkeys as a kid but for some reason I never got them.The video was shot on day 5 after I put the eggs in. There are quite a few little guys swimming around it the water and they are doing fantastic. I used spring water in their tank, kept my hands and fingers OUT of the tank and placed them in a sunny window during the day and I don't move the tank around much at all. I also aerate them for about 20 seconds every other day with a small air pump and stone that is made for fishbowls, the smallest one you can find.Mine hatched the day after I put the eggs in.When the kit arrived, I rinsed it out with the spring water after taking everything out of it. Then I filled it to the fill line with spring water, put the lid on it and let it sit for 24 hours.The next day, I poured the water purifier in. I didn't stir it, I didn't mess with it at all. I poured the pack in and then put the lid back on the tank.Next day I aerated the water then poured in the eggs. Again, no stirring or anything. I left it alone, put the lid back on and walked away.The next day, low and behold I had teeny tiny babies swimming around.Fed them on the 5th day after they hatched, which was a few hours before I took that video footage.I'll update again when they are larger but so far I'm really getting a kick out of this. It would appear that the secret is less is more, spring water, don't move the tank around and a lot of patience. 5Mine worked (Long review!)WARNING: LONG REVIEWI've had sea monkeys before, probably when I was like in first grade. I remember my dad throwing away the food, me having a huge tantrum and ignoring the sea monkeys for a good three weeks, and returning to find one solitary little sea monkey still in the tank. After showering it with love, it died and we threw everything away. Now, I'm a junior in high school, and so I thought I was responsible enough to care for some brine shrimp marketed towards little kids.I received the package on Feb. 11, and to be honest, I didn't have high hopes.My tank was this gluey mess - I could see the little deposits of glue outside where it had dripped. When I opened the lid, I found a small crack in the plastic. I was disappointed, but was still super excited to try these little things out again, so I grabbed some E6000 to quickly patch up the hole and a bottle of water to fill up to the line.Day 1: I opened the package, fixed the crack with E6000 and got started! When I opened packet 1, the water purifier packet, it was slightly green, had little blackish-red dots, and would just come out of the packet. I had to dip it into the water, swish, dump back in, and repeat. From what I remembered, packet 1 was supposed to be white powder (at least that's what I saw in first grade?) but oh well. I finished with packet 1, and put everything else aside. It was around 6:45 pm-ish when I finished.Day 2: 11:30 pm (lots of homework, what can I say?), I opened packet number 2. Again, from memory, I remember just being able to pour out white powder into the tank, but again, the "powder" was green, wet, and speckled with little black dots. I was rather disappointed but forced on, doing the swish, dump technique again. When I looked into the tank, I could see nothing moving.Day 3: (At around 10:30 pm) THERE WERE BABY SQUIRMY THINGS! I could see a grand total of... 3. Awesome. But well, it was something, I guess? I took a coffee stirrer thing (the red plastic thin straws) and blew some air in. When I finished, I couldn't find them again. Hoping that I didn't accidentally kill them, I went off to bed.Day 4: So much for three baby sea monkeys... when I checked on day 4, I could see at least 80 little babies wiggling around. Knowing I was probably going to have a mass die-off (whoever heard of raising 80 sea monkeys to adulthood?) I said my goodbyes before heading off to bed. (Day 4 was basically Day 5, it was like 1:45 am by the time I finished chemistry homework!)Day 5: When I checked, there were maybe 20 sea monkeys, but they were now big enough for me to see without having to actually focus. I couldn't see any more tiny babies, so I probably had an entire carpet of dead babies at the bottom of the tank (good thing they were so small I couldn't see them too well... that would have been horrifying.)Anyway, I fed them on day 7, and stopped keeping track around day 12. My sea monkeys grew. I probably have around 30 in my tank right now - 15 big adult ones for sure and a lot of juveniles. I saw three itty bitty babies today (they're literally the size of a period and almost impossible to see unless you know what you're looking for. Look for little white swimming commas.) and I have a lot of reddish brown specks floating around, maybe around a hundred of those. (A google search told me that brownish red specks are sea monkey eggs, so that was probably the weird stuff in the package?) I keep my sea monkey tank on my desk and they accompany me when I do homework. It's been a while since I last fed them, but they have a little colony of algae in their tank (they basically get exposed to only my desk lamp so I don't expect too much photosynthesis). I don't often oxygenate the tank.Anyway, I was originally going to give four stars because of the cracked tank, the bad glue at the bottom, and the magnifying bubbles that really do a whole bunch of nothing. But then I wasn't buying this for the tank and could have used a mason jar for a "prettier presentation."It's just important to be really patient and look hard :) I attached a picture so you can see the sea monkeys in my tank!EDIT (1/17/2016): I did eventually give up on the sea-monkeys sometime in July, as I went to Taiwan for five months and during the time, no one fed or aerated the sea monkeys. When I returned, they were gone :( So I actually purchased another sea-monkey kit and I'm beginning the process anew - I bought the Sea-Monkeys on the Moon kit and we'll see what happens! I've already had a very different experience! 5give them timeThe reviews for these are all over the place so I didn't really know what to expect, but I was bored and we don't need any more real pets. I used distilled water as per another reviewer's suggestion and followed the instructions to add water purifier and wait 24 hours. Then I added the 'instant live eggs' and...nothing. It was super lame, haha. I left the tank alone to sit in shame on my kitchen windowsill and debated getting a real fish. Then, like 4 days later I happened to look in the tank again and it was full of itty bitty sea monkeys! Don't give up hope for at least a week. Now it's been 3 weeks and I have 6 left, but they're bigger and a lot easier to see. 4Excellent if you know you are getting brine shrimp (which are surprisingly interesting)My package arrived promptly in and in good condition. I followed the directions, and in 48 hours I had tiny shrimp swimming around my tank. I may have overfed them at first, but it seemed to do no harm. It's been over 3 weeks, and my monkeys are thriving. They are, of course, tiny shrimp, so don't order these expecting some sort of aquatic ape. I find them quite soothing to watch as they are very active around the tank. Follow the directions, and you will get what's advertised. Only downside is this kit should really come with a small air pump so you don't have to stir the tank to aerate until the algae grows. I'm hoping for babies soon! I would recommend this as a gift for anyone with and interest in biology who doesn't have a lot of time to commit to tank. If for some reason your eggs don't hatch, there's a 2 year guarantee. 5
