Product Description
For more than forty-five years, sea-monkeys swam happily in their world famous, scientifically designed Zoo-Quariums with the magnifying portals. Now...add the redesigned and laboratory approved Mini-World salty simian habitats. The main difference? Zoo-Quarium sea-monkeys are best viewed through the sides of the tanks while Mini-World inhabitants look best when viewed from above.Your sea-monkeys will be happy frolicking and diving in their new home in the metropolis. The "In the City" Mini-World tank sports a brand-new, city-themed design. Guaranteed to live two years, your salty pets will love their enriched new habitats...and so will you.
Mini-World features: water purifier, instant live eggs, growth food, calibrated feeding spoon, specially designed pipette to help refresh the watery home, a trilingual (English, Spanish, French) User Guide, a Sea-Monkey Insurance Form with a 2-Year Guarantee, a scientifically designed and tested Mini-World tank, and the exclusive multi-magnifying lid that allows proper air exchange and optimized viewing. Additional sea-monkeys Mini-Worlds sold separately.
This has been very fun and educational for my kids. We are on the 3rd generation, and expecting more
I love Sea Monkeys. They are fun to watch grow. I've had the classic tall red tank and it was great. This tank is too squat and it makes it really hard to "air" them without the special tool that has to be bought separately. Maybe that was the plan....Anyway-I recommend the taller/thiner tank so it is easy to pour the water to "air" them. Be sure to follow ALL of the directions.
It is Jan of 2009, and my daughter got these sea monkeys one year ago. I thought they would live a little while, if we were lucky, then die off. Well it is one year later and they are thriving.
What we do to keep them happy, healthy, and pregnant:
LIGHT: They are near a south facing window but most of the aquarium city is in the shade-on cloudy days I move them closer to the window. Letting the sun hit the edge of the city has allowed the algae to thrive.
FOOD/ALGEA: Since the sea monkeys eat algae, we have not had to feed them for the last 8 months. At first I could not get the algae to grow, so I scooped a tiny bit of algae from a puddle from a leaking hose outside, and dropped it into the city. Within a week algae began spreading through the city.
WATER/OXEGENATION: I allow the water to evaporate until the tops of the buildings are exposed, then I take the water bottle and SLOWLY pour in water from a height of one and a half feet up. I pour slowly so as not to disturb the sea monkeys too much, but I pour from high above so as to oxygenate the water as much as possible, I do this about once a week.
Cleaning: I scoop out any large floating blob of algae but I am terrified and guilt ridden that they may have eggs or babies in the blob. I hope not, but I need to keep the water as clear as possible as the sea monkeys really seem to enjoy the wide open spaces of water.
Good luck with your sea monkeys--I'll try to remember to edit this and add a date when my sea monkeys stop reproducing and die off. They really are so cute and graceful (even with the long strings of poop trailing them) that I will miss them when they are gone.
The tank looks cool when you open the box but its got some problems. Many times, some sea-monkeys get stuck behind the buildings and other times they just die. You also have to change the water often because if you don't, the buildings will turn black.
This is my second attempt at growing sea monkeys and so far it's been a huge success. Unlike my last sea monkey experience, this time the pamphlet included helpful tips about oxygenated the sea monkeys and keeping them in indirect sunlight. The result... at least a dozen growing sea monkeys!
This is one of those really neat things that every kid should try a least once. The City Mini World is a great back drop to watch these amazing little creatures grow. We still have it in fact and now have a new generation living among our growing metropolis. We might have to purchase a little more advanced of a set because when the "Monkeys" get big they sometimes get stuck when you are trying to oxygenate the water. This is no big deal because I can't imagine very many kids wanting to keep them this long. My husband and I love the "sea monkeys" and want to see them thrive!
This design was a great change for the sea-monkey world! The square design makes it virtually tip proof. I had these sea critters when I was a kid and an unfortunate accident tipped the tank over, then I was at Toysrus and I saw the new design and I thought... why not, I'll be a kid again! As an adult it has been just as much fun as it was before! The kit comes with the water purifier, instant life eggs, growth food, and a small vaccuum sucker to clean the tank! Get it.. have fun!
its so cool i want it my mother said i could get it on sunday.
