Here's how to create sea monkeys from their cystalized form

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Sea monkeys package
  1. Step 1

    Clean the aquarium provided with clean water, rinse it with hot water, and then fill it in with bottled water

  2. Step 2

    Mix the purifying powder from the package and keep it for 24 hours

  3. Step 3

    Pour your sea monkeys to the aquarium and stir it for few times

  4. Step 4

    After the eggs hatched, leave it for 3 days, don't give food first

  5. Step 5

    Give one one spoon of food provided in the package using the little side of the spoon

  6. Step 6

    Add food again once your water has cleared again, greenish water means there're still too much food in the aquarium

Tips & Warnings
  • Provide enough sunshine to your room and put your aquarium toward it, sea monkeys like to bathe on sun but don't leave it for too long as it may get overheated
  • Shake the aquarium couple times a day to get enough oxygen in the water
  • Make sure don't overfeed your sea monkeys as the water will turn cloudy green and it will affect the sea monkey's growth
  • It really take a long time for the sea monkeys to grow, so you may notice anything in the first few weeks

on 5/22/2009 I have had my sea monkeys for about a month now and I have just started to notice a residue on the bottom of my tank . I feed my sea monkies exactly as the direction specify on the package . I have also noticed that I don't have as many large sea monkies as I did but I have noticed that there are several brand new baby sea monkies in the tank . Do I need to remove the residue from the bottom of the tank and if so , how do I go about it .
