Sea Monkeys Reviews

I got sea monkeys about a month ago and they went well. I find that you dont need to feed them as much once the algae starts to grow and thats why I have mine set up in the window sill. Where it grows heaps of algae. After a while the algae began to grow a bit too strongly so I orderd some coco snails and sea bubbles from another company called itsybitsyseadragons.co.uk. After a few days they arrived and I was amazed at how quickly these little snails clean the algae of the sides of the ocean-viewer. Any way Im nearly out of my growth food now so ill be ordering some more from seamonkeys.com soon. I think these products are exellent.

Sea monkeys are great for young children to learn about keeping animals. They need to make sure they care for them properly giving them the right amount of food and making sure they don't die. Sea Monkeys are a type of brine shrimp and the tank should last up to 2 years - amazing! The creators of these have been working over the past 40 ...  Read the complete review

I'm sure my children are like most of yours with regards to pets. They moan and moan and moan for a pet and then when you buy them one they show next to no interest. In the past we've had countless hamsters, rabbits and gold fish and a dog. And every time it's been left up to me to feed and look after them. So when my two kids ...  Read the complete review

Sea Monkeys are a great first 'pet' for all supervised children. They are quite 'magic' as the powder turns into little shrimp things but not as instantly as advertised on the front. Wait 3 days before actually being able to see something for real. In the tank pack you get the eggs, powder to add to water, and the food. One thing to remember ...  Read the complete review

What a con. These little Daphnia water fleas you magically bring back to life - fair enough and a good educaton to kids. What I'm opposed to is all the riduculous mechandise that goes with it. The castles, the food, the funny stuff that brings them back to life when you forget to feed them, water them and let them dry out. I did have ...  Read the complete review

I used to have Sea monkeys as a child and loved them. I had forgotten about them actually until I was shopping for birthday presents for my daughter who would be 4 in "toys r us". I noticed these on the shelf. I was delighted as I remembered them. I decided to buy the bog standard set which cost £9.99. In the set it included a small ...  Read the complete review

---An introduction--- When my colleagues asked me what I wanted for my birthday last year I remembered that I had an idea a while back that sea-monkeys for the office would be a good idea. Work is not the most exciting of places for me (it's not for most people I realise!), and morale is often quite low (especially when I'm ...  Read the complete review

sorry to tell you but sea monkeys are technically just brine shrimp that us normal human beings would use as food to feed other animals. Sea monkeys is just a gimic name to sell the idea of these to people. Sea monkeys can reproduce after mating or asexually meaning you only need a female. These brine shrimp that ...  Read the complete review

This is something my son was given as a Christmas present, to be honest I had never heard of them and was very curious to know how you could grow creatures from powder and thought it was another of life’s great rip offs and to be honest I thought it wasn’t worth time even opening the pack but my son like most anxious children wouldn’t let me ...  Read the complete review

It was my son's Birthday a couple of weeks ago, I was wondering around Toys r us when I came across the educational section, My son loves Science at school so I thought I would buy him something scientific. I saw these Sea Monkeys and thought they looked interesting, I didn't really know too much about them at the time but thought for £6.99 they ...  Read the complete review

I always try and find at least one present (whatever the occasion) for someone that is that little bit different, something that they are not expecting but it will either amuse or intrigue and hopefully like (and if they don’t it is guaranteed that I will so bonus). This time it was Sea Monkey's for my beloved at Christmas, I had ...  Read the complete review

What are Sea Monkeys ************************** Sea Monkeys are weird little beasts. They are a hybrid variety of brine shrimp (Their correct Latin name is ''Artemia nyos''"after the New York Ocean Science Laboratories where the hybrid Sea-Monkeys were developed.") Brine Shrimp for many years were harvested either ...  Read the complete review

It is sad I know, but I have wanted Sea Monkeys of my own for about 30 years. The 70's have a lot to answer for! You see, to me Sea Monkeys were the strange mysterious things that were advertised in comics when I was young, along with X-Ray specs and dirty soap bars. So maybe they were just a big joke, but I would never know unless I ...  Read the complete review

I knew nothing of sea monkeys until at age 24 I unwrapped them as a christmas present from my husband, I am allergic to everything else (and moan continously about it!) The instructions seem quite clear, add water purifier to boiled water, wait , add monkeys, then what? I spent 3 days staring at the sea monkey castle (treating it as a ...  Read the complete review

I heard about Sea Monkeys from a guy at work a couple of weeks ago and was intrigued by what he told me, intrigued enough to get myself some and see if he was telling the truth. I ordered my monkeys and within a week they arrived on my doorstep waiting to be magically brought to life. First of all, I read through the booklet that ...  Read the complete review

My first experience with sea monkeys was when me and my mate went into Beatties and saw them. I had heard of them before and as I'm a sucker for new exciting things I thought I'd give them a go. So home I went with my new pets in a packet waiting for when I got in to start the process of life. Sea Monkeys are essentially ...  Read the complete review

I bought two of the Sea-Monkey sets for christmas one for each of my sons, one is the Nasa space shuttle and the other is the underground caves. They are so easy to set up all you need to do is add water, leave it for 24 hours and then add the eggs, and instantly you have your little sea-monkey pets bobbing about. They only ...  Read the complete review

We all imagine sea monkeys to be little monkeys swimming around in a tank, not so,they are in fact brine shrimps or triops a kind of mutated shrimp. However they are great fun even though they dont really live all that long the longest mine lasted was two months. Kids love the idea of them, you get everything in a box, tank, magnifying ...  Read the complete review

Well, this is my daughters second go at keeping these wriggly sea thingys ..and to be completely honest I wasn't exactly thrilled when she asked for another bash at it. After staring at them for what seemed to be months, they all popped their proverbial clogs and went to that great aquarium in the sky (or sea, I suppose it should be);this was ...  Read the complete review
