What Are Sea-Monkeys

November 28th 2008 09:21
Sea-Monkeys are probably one of the most popular pets among young kids. I know that I had them when I was a kid. I even brough them to science class, which gave me the name "Sea-Monkey Girl" for the remainder of the school year. I didn't care though, call me what you want because sea-monkeys are cool!



Sea-monkeys get their name from their funny behavior and long tail, although, they are nothign more than mere brine shrimp. Sea-monkeys are actually a unique species of brine shrimp known by the scientific name Artemia nyos; they are a variant of Artemia salina.


The brine shrimp hybrid grow larger and live longer than the average brine shrimp because of the new forumlas that keep them alive longer under certain situations.

Sea-monkeys hatch instantly as soon as they land in the treated water. They will live about 2 yeras with the proper care. The sea-monkey eggs are packed around special crystals that keep the eggs alive until they hit water, to which they will instant hatch and grow.

After hatching, the sea-monkeys are very small, which is why it can be hard to overlook them, but within days you will start to notice your sea-monkeys have grown substantially.

Within a 4 week period, you initial sea-monkeys will grow between 1/2 to 2/4 inch.

There are tons of sea-monkey products that you can buy with loads of different aquarium designs to choose from.
