Where to buy 3ML plastic Pipette in a store? Help!?
What store (not online) can I buy a 3 ML plastic Pipette? I’m using it to temporarily give oxygen to my Sea Monkeys because the order I’m making in for the Air Pump is going to take a whole month and I need something right now.
Is there a specific store that may carry 3 ML plastic pipettes?
Thanks for your help!

Sea monkeys – harmless fun or animal cruelty?
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 am getting sea monkeys (brine shrimp) in a few days from an Internet order?
I was wondering if it works, and whether or not I can put in the flat bottomed marbles and a little plastic plant in the tank? Will it be safe for them? Will they enjoy it? I basically want to know everything u know about them. (I already went to seamonkey.com so please don’t suggest that.) ^^ I want to know the opinions of people.
Thanks, Nara
