Review: Disappointed, but maybe my fault? - I love sea monkeys so much. I find them a very nostalgic part of childhood and wanted to get my kids hooked into them also. Mine came damaged but still usable and they did not hatch. Not a single one! I’ve never had that happen before. I’m not sure if it’s related to the time of year or just a bad batch? Nonetheless, I am disappointed. But rest assured, sea monkeys are awesome and if your batch takes off, they are so fun and simple to take care of. EDIT: Updating review from 4 to 5 stars - Happy to report that my sea monkeys hatched out of nowhere 2 weeks after adding the eggs! I didn’t do anything other than leave the water chilling in the same spot for two weeks. I almost considered dumping and trying again a few days prior to seeing some activity, so I’m very glad I didn’t lol. So far, we only have 3 tiny little guys, but they’re doing well. So if you think your eggs are a bust, just give it a little more time! It does say in the pamphlet that it can take up to 3 weeks for all eggs to hatch, but I didn’t expect that I wouldn’t have a single hatch until 2 weeks. Nonetheless, I am pleased! I’m thinking most people who reported no hatching just didn’t give it enough time or provide the best conditions.
Review: Scam - I wish I could give 0 stars but I can’t, so this gets 1. My brother ordered these same sea monkeys for my daughter and they never hatched after 2 months of waiting. I chalked it up to me not following the instructions correctly. I purchased these sea monkey’s myself as a birthday present for my niece and again, they still didn’t hatch. SCAM!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: The eggs didnt “hatch” I guess you would say I followed directions, but nothing   Is there any way to buy some more of them to try and do again**
A: We just purchased 2 week ago and have many hatch the 1st week and many more this 2nd week. We push air in the tank 2 / day to oxygenated and seem to be doing good they’re growing pretty quickly we also have them in a indirect sunlight

**Q: Where can i buy more food?**
A: Just get the powdered algae or pelletier spirulina powder on amazon

**Q: Do you have to add air bubbles with a pipette?**
A: Nope. I sometimes add some new water or take some of their old water and shake it up to add oxygen. Have had mine for 6 months now and they are doing great in a regular fish bowl with no filters they like dirty water but I don't let it get too dirty. I bought 2 kits and put both after a few weeks in the fish bowl with treated  distilled salt water.

**Q: Do you have to buy more water purifier as time goes on? Or clean the tank?**
A: If you are replacing water from evaporation, you will not have to use more purifier, because the salt does not evaporate. If you are going to be changing some of the water in order to clean the tank, you will need to add a little bit of purifier OR use marine aquarium salt. The "purifier" is not really purifier, since you start out using distilled water, there is nothing to purify. It is really just salt and minerals.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Initial results are very promising!
*by T***I on January 4, 2026*

No damage to contents. Packets #1 and #2 sealed and dry. I haven't opened #3 yet. I bought a small in-tank heater, add 12oz of regular spring (not mineral) water, and waited until it was heated to 78F. I added packet #1, and inserted a small aerator to mix in the contents. Over a 24hr period, I saw no early shrimp activity though I did see some eggs. After 24Hrs of adding packet #1, I added packet #2 and again aerated with the device I used earlier. After about 12hrs I checked and saw some activity! After 24 hrs, more activity! I once again aerated. I don't plan to aerate for a bit. I'll let them grow some. In addition to the in-tank heater, I have the tank sitting under some timed grow lights to stimulate algae growth. I had initially intended to wait for awhile, after adding the spring water, but before adding any packets, to have some algae already available, but then I wondered if adding the salt would cause them problems. I decided I would rather algae establish in the environment it will exist in. Also, I just got impatient! 😂 As it stands thus far, this product and seller have provided and fun and reliable product. All of the issues I have read elsewhere, were nowhere to be found here. If you are interested in growing pet, hybridized, brine shrimp, this is a great option, IMHO. I would strongly suggest you get a very small in-tank heater, if your ambient temps aren't going to be a steady mid-70s, and get a small plant grow light on a timer, either way. If you can get a healthy algae colony going, you can really cut back on explicit packet feeding, plus the living algae will be more nutritious. At that point, you'll mostly need to just stay on top of water re-fills. Regarding water, for the love-a-Mike, please don't use tap! Just get some bottled natural spring water from your local grocer, or, at worst, some distilled water. You're only adding a couple of ounces per re-fill so even a quart or liter would last for some time. So, all in all you're probably looking at the cost of this tank plus small heater and small plant grow light. And if you have a low to mid 70s stable ambient temperature, you could do without the heater. I will likely update in a week or two. UPDATE: I'd say a good 15 or so made it to young adulthood. I moved them to a prepared .5gallon tank, with heater and bubble stone. It had some algae and some previously transferred bit of water from this original tank. Now, about 10 days after move, only a couple have passed, and the rest have been doing nothing but swimming, eating and making bebes! A few unhatched eggs from the initial setup hatched upon transfer to the larger tank. They are now 1/4-1/3". And there are scads of those super small pin-points swimming around. I'll know in a week or two if the larger volume and existence of algae (plus the packet food) is enough to allow some to grow further. If I end up with "Loads O' Monkeys", i'll update with a photo.
