Sea-Monkeys
When I was growing up I really wanted Sea-Monkeys but was never allowed to get them. So, now that I am a grown man, I looked into buying some Sea-Monkeys for my apartment. After minutes of research, I realized how disgusting these things really are and how deceiving the advertising was.
When I was a kid, this was the way Sea-Monkeys were publicized:
Mother Sea-Monkey - "Who has the greatest family in the world? I DO!"
In reality, this is what Sea-Monkeys actually look like:
"I have no problem stabbing you in the soul!"
What kid would ever want a pet that is so disgusting?
"No abnormally haired sea creature, I don't know why my banana chair looks like a happy shark."
Put away that banana treat. My disgusting Sea-Monkey doesn't deserve it!
So what exactly are Sea-Monkeys? Let's ask the official sea-monkey website, sea-monkeys.com -
Sea-Monkeys are a hybrid species of brine shrimp called "Artemia NYOS". "Artemia" is the genus they belong to, which includes Fairy and Brine shrimp. NYOS is the acronym for the New York Ocean Science Laboratories where they were created.
So what you are telling me is that Sea-Monkeys are just disgusting brine shrimp right? WRONG! I learned my lesson the hard way by checking out the frequently asked questions segment on the official sea-monkeys.com website.
Real FAQ - A person in a pet store insisted that Sea-Monkeys are just brine shrimp?
Real answer - The person in the pet store should visit this website.
SLAP!!!! That's what I get for asking such a stupid question. Sea-Monkeys are far more disgusting than regular brine shrimp because I cannot possibly love it correctly.
So, for now, I leave the Sea-Monkey world to the people who can truly love these creatures and see past their disgusting brine bodies. Maybe I'm not mature enough to handle such responsibility. I guess I have a while to go till I really am a grown man. Maybe one day I will be mature enough to carry someone I love in a watch.
"Hey Ben, why does your wrist always smell like the inside of my dog's asshole?"
But until then, I leave you with this popular frequently asked question that seems almost too obvious to ask -
Should I change the water periodically?
Nope.

I too was waiting patiently for my sea monkeys to "grow" to look like the photo (pic 1) but as we all know........DISSAPOINTED !!!!
you know when I was a kid I always wanted seamonkeys but mom and dad always said no they were just brine shrimp. well, now i not only found out that they are brine shrimp, but there a hybrid. cool, I currently raise seamonkeys and I love them, they breed and produce many more of them selfes, and for an inital investment of $14.99 i now have a life time free supply of food for my dwarf puffer fish, she loves them she chases them around the tank when I put them in and then she devoures them shell and all its really neat to raise something and watch it grow and then feed it to a bigger creature. I say keep growing your seamonkeys and feed them to your bigger fish!!
sea monkeys are cool not ugly
That looks like a mutated sea monkey, what horrible things have you done to these helpless animals? What kind of sick individual are you? Obviously because only a horribly bad person wouldn't like sea monkeys.
I HAD SEA MONKEYS ONCE BUT MY MOM THREW THEM AWAY CAUSE THEY SMELLED.
There Brine shrimp and thats what I feed to my false percula clowns
im getting seamonkeys soon, my fiance had some once, but they mutated all creepy like, so now i want some, i want to b god to those litle brine shrimp, their lives are in my hands muahahahaha.
i had sea monkeys a while back but had no other fish to feed them to but i found scwishing them with a spoon is just as fun
MEH HEH HEH HEEEHH
I never thought of doing what kharabe said good idea though
Feed them to your fish for free food
(Well after you pay the small price for a starter pack)

well when i first ever heard of sea monkeys i thought they would LOOK like sea monkeys or something. So my brother got some to see what they would look like, but as always my brother over fed them and he tasted the food for himself, ewwww! So now im going to raise these monkeys the right way, i researched a bit a found out that they are disgusting mutated shrimp, now im doubting about there advertisement, not that i thought sea monkeys would look like ppl
i thought sea-monkeys look cute....thanks for posting pics!i am currently a sea-monkey owner,excitedly waiting for my so-called "pets" to grow.hope my eyes could stand their looks.they look grose....
I kept some and had a good laugh when they would have sex (no, seriously, they have sex) and when you could visibly see the females all knocked up. Then I got bored and stopped feeding them... After a couple months some of them were still alive. Cannibalism?
