supasi Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Most Forum members would have had them at some stage or still do. They are commonly known as Brine Shrimp and make excellent food for young fish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 And if you add salt to the water, they will actually hatch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishBen Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 Do Sea-Monkeys get hurt while mating? Not usually, although sometimes things can get pretty rough. What are those sacs hanging off my Sea-Monkey? Are they Sea-Monkey testicles? Uh No, actually, those are the females' egg sacs. A person in a pet store insisted that Sea-Monkeys are just brine shrimp? The person in the pet store should visit this website :lol: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwiplymouth Posted October 16, 2010 Report Share Posted October 16, 2010 They are also a lot more active and can be taught to perform "tricks", unlike ordinary brine shrimp. :bounce: :bounce: :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bilbo Posted October 18, 2010 Report Share Posted October 18, 2010 but your Sea-Monkeys are not brine shrimp. They belong to the same genus, "Artemia", but are completely different animals. Anyone got a legal opinion in this statement? :roll: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
