Advantages: You can ignore them

Disadvantages: a tad boring

Probably the easiest pet. Can't understand why they are called water monkeys though.
You may not have heard of them but they come in a packet (rather like seeds) and you get a little tank, add some water, drop 'em in and wait.
Eventually these little fellas hatch out into funny see-through flea like things and mesmerize you with their graceful movements (well, if you've got a good imagination they do)
You feed them now and again and that's it. They don't even need cleaning out.
Watch out where you place the tank though, because if you knock it over, as we did, they are lost forever. Just try finding 200 see-through fleas in your shag-pile!
So when the kids have nagged for weeks for a dog (too big),
cat (still too big) etc. why not suggest water monkeys - they'll just be grateful you've allowed them to have anything they can call a pet.
