Fairy Shrimp – Brine Shrimp – Sea Monkeys

Posts Tagged ‘something’

I prefer small pets, and it seems like a single-celled one might do the trick. I can keep an eye on them with my microscope and feed them viruses or something.
Has this been done before? It seems like i could make a lot of money selling them too, because they breed faster than rats and don’t smell.
This is as good of an idea as sea monkeys or pet rocks, no?

My 8 year old daughter had a friend round and they were mucking about – my daughter denies all knowledge but the water in the seamonkey tank is higher and it smells of PERFUME! the sea monkeys were swimming frantically yesterday – today they seem ok although the water is cloudier than usual. I’m guessing that if they didn’t die yet they may survive? Any ideas/advice? I have thought about getting some more ‘purifier’ and just starting again (rescuing the surviving monkeys and putting them in the new water) what do you think? worth doing?

(poor little critters!)
Do I need to use the purifier? or will ordinary salt do? does anyone know the quantities of each?

Because like the eggs or crystals turned green and idk what happened.

My guppy fry are in my 4 gallon breeder tank. i have been feeding them finely crushed flakes but i want to know how to give them egg yolk i dont get that. By egg yolk does that mean you boil and egg and open the egg to the core and take out that boiled egg yolk and drop it in the tank? or is it something else? They dont sell brine shrimp eggs at my local petsmart i dont know what else to give them besides the crushed flakes help?

Or do you need to feed them something else?
