![]() Since they require a pretty high salinity to thrive, I'm not sure what plants other than unicellular green algae you could grow with them. The algae might have been from airborne spores or spores in the food sold for Sea Monkeys.) Those Sea Monkeys may have actually lived longer, but when we moved, I left the tank at the house. ![]() I'd removed the filter, but I left in the gravel substrate and shells. (It was a former marine tank for sea horses that had died. It survived by being utterly coated with green algae in a greenhouse. I actually had a 10 gallon tank of sea monkeys for a year or so as a teenager. (If you get the catalog for Sea Monkeys, there is an eye dropper and water mix to do water changes in those tiny 12-16 oz tanks.) So I thought perhaps I could grow a bit of floating cabomba, some duck weed, and a nice thicket of java moss attached to some larger rocks that they cannot get lost in - no gravel or soil.Īnybody have any tips, experience, etc? I haven't really had a go at taking care of sea-monkeys properly, but I think having their tank filtered by plants would definitely be an improvement to those little boxes of death that they usually live in. but I remember as a kid putting them into a tank with gravel and having them disappear. Has anybody tried this? I was thinking of setting up an El-natural tank for them and growing a few nice plants like cabomba for them. and who's ever heard of water changes for sea-monkeys?īut, unwilling to give up my dream of sea monkeys, I've decided to provide them with the best tank I possibly can - a tank with plants and ornaments. Apparently sea-monkeys can live for 2 years - but never really get past a few months in those tiny, unfiltered tanks. However, whilst thinking about the sea-monkeys I used to have as a kid, I realised that the whole thing was really just novelty animal cruelty. It does not store any personal data.After a conversation with a friend recently, I have decided to nurture my inner child and invest in some sea-monkeys, to keep as pets, rather than food for my fish. ![]() The cookie is set by the GDPR Cookie Consent plugin and is used to store whether or not user has consented to the use of cookies.
