 A lot of fun November 11, 2007
I have three different Sea Monkeys Tanks and Sea Monkeys On Mars is my favorite one. It is easy to use and the colors enable you to see your Sea Monkeys very well.
I LOVE Sea Monkeys July 3, 2007

I ordered the Sea Monkeys on Mars kit for my office, and I absolutely love it. I have had my tank up for about a month, and I have several adults swimming around. I really like the look of this tank. It's fun to watch them swim around the arches and the spaceship.
I have a million bubble air pump, and I use it on the days when I am at work. If you only have the aqua leash, you can attach a small air stone (from the aquarium store) to the end of it to make little bubbles. Put it in the water, push the air out, pull the aqua leash out of the water, get more air, put it back in the water, etc...
I feed them about once a week.
The instructions that come with the kit are not the best. Go to www.sea-monkeys.com for better instructions. There is also a forum at www.seamonkeymania.com that is very helpful if you have questions.

We did as the instructions said. Quite a few monkeys hatched, but quickly died off. There were only 3 left after we got to the first feeding day per the packaging and they were gone before we got to the plasma kit. The kids liked setting it up and watching them hatch, but quickly lost interest.
 Great, but not recommended ... January 11, 2007

I love watching my seamonkeys in the Mars tank, but it is actually quite hazardous for them. Seamonkeys swim aimlessly and thus constantly bump into the little floating astronaunt. They often get injured and die prematurely. You can tell they are injured by a black mark or dot on them. At the very least if you insist on getting this, for the sake of the lives of your future pets, cut off the astronaunt by his attached cord. Otherwise I'd just recommend getting the empty standard tank. It's larger and allows for more seamonkeys to populate. You know, like the fish only grow as big and as many as their habitat allows.
First time I've ever grown these. Very interesting! July 10, 2006

I bought this product not knowing what sea monkeys were or what to expect. I was pleasantly surprised. After just a few days, the "martian" environment was brimming with life. At first, I could barely see them and wasn't sure if they were alive or just particles floating around. Now I can actually see them from a few feet away, swimming around and doing flips.
They appear to be little shrimp-like creatures. I'd recommend this for youngsters as a primer before getting a more demanding pet. The maintenance is pretty low, but you DO need to do a couple minor things every now and then to keep them alive and prolong their lives. Supposedly they can live a couple years. We're at 1 month and counting...
