Why aren’t my sea monkeys growing?Where are they?Are they dead?
boont asked:
I bought them from wal-mart and brought them home.I put the purifier in but I just couldn’t wait 24 hours so i put half of the eggs in that same day.the next day when I got home the sea monkeys had hatched so I put hte rest of the eggs in.6 days later i put the food in.some of the monkeys weren’t even moving.A couple of days later i didn’t see any monkeys.I thought the algae were the monkeys until i looked on the internet and saw what they looked like.There is nothing in my tank but green goowy stuff at the bottom.When i filled the tank up the first time i used bottled water but when the water level droped i used faucet water.But that was after the monkeys disappeared.Whats going on?

January 4, 2009 | 12:27 AMYou killed a sea monkey? i think thats a sign your not ready for a pet. and you bought them from wal mart, not good. They probably could not stand their dirty water so they probably jumped out and flushed themselves down the toilet.

I’d reccommend trying another batch of sea monkeys. The monkeys are TINY at first, though, and really difficult to see. They grow a lot bigger.
