like sea monkeys
i want some for my birthday. and ive had sea monkeys before but you cant really see them without looking closely, what im after is the same sort of thing but they are visible to the human eye, does any body know what they are called? you also get them in packs just like sea monkeys.
Most people will have come across sea monkeys, they’re little shrimp that are sold as toys or rather ‘starter pets’ for children. For less than £10 you can buy a small plastic tank, ‘food’ and sea monkey eggs, held in suspended animation, as it were, and you just add water to bring them to life.
Now i’ve always though this was pretty cool, and was just thinking of getting some today (they go well with the student lifestyle, cheap to buy and feed, don’t live long, small and non-offensive etc) when I stumbled accross an article saying they were a form of animal cruelty, kept in tanks far too small, no-where near their natural environment and they’re treated as a game, kids and parents alike not caring if they die, because they’re cheap and ‘toy-like’ in packaging.
Immediately afterwards I found this site http://www.langleystoys.com/acatalog/Sea_Monkeys.html?gclid=CMvhpKC1g5ICFQGIMAodIl2_3A which even has a tiny tank that can be worn on the wrist!
What do you think?

I have sent many times for the “sea monkeys” that are advertised in the comic books. According to the illustration, they appear to be part human, part fish. They even built their own houses and play guitars as well as many things that one would not expect from an aquatic animal. Nevertheless, whenever I received them and followed the instructions, they hatched into a rather primitive looking creatures that looked nothing like the illustrations, and appeared much too stupid to build a house of any kind. Thinking that they might need company, I dumped them into my fish tank at which time they were immediately eaten by the fish. I thought that if some of the sea monkeys played their guitars, that the music would placate the fish. Well I never even saw a little guitar before they were devoured by my angel fish. Now I feel terribly guilty due to my error. Can anyone tell me what I did wrong and what I can do to prevent similar tragidies in the future
