An unboxing and review of the Sea Monkeys Sea Bubble keyring aquarium.
In this video I give a history of the Sea-Bubble and compare it to the sea monkies aquarium watch, aqua maze and necklace pendant aquarium.

Back in the 70s I had a travel tank I ordered from the form that came with a kit. It was a glass tube with a flat bottom, and a plastic top which I think had a clip, so you could put it in your pocket like a pen. I took my monkeys everywhere - to family events, to boy scouts, and even for a long day at show and tell in elementary school. The short trips probably weren't too bad, but the day at school must have been tough - I was young and didn't know any better.

I'm gonna draw from my personal experience to say this is not the best idea for kids. About 30-or-so years ago my cousin had the bubble necklace apparatus and brought her favorite sea monkey to my house for a visit. Well, it didn't survive for more than a few hours, after which we had a funeral for it in my front yard. As we couldn't bring ourselves to tears from its mere passing, we resorted to cutting onions to provide faux tears for the ceremony... OMG to be a kid again, and not just a "man-child".

John, your editing is getting so clean. I love your production value and your videos make me smile every time

[ninuluna]

Ive seen some of your videos where the sea monkeys simply dont hatch, seing them here swiming and enjoying the light of day after a decade is extraordinary, thanks for always giving them a chance 😊

[hattie]

Haha, I was wondering what the second stopper was for right up until you poured them back in! I'm kind of on the side against keychain aquariums, I don't like to put my animals through any unnecessary stress, and I feel like what a keychain goes through in a day is pretty rough...I don't think I could go through any period of time with them in a small space like that without being hyper aware about how long they've been in there and how much jostling they're going though.

[SLOWPOKERODRIGUEZ]

The idea that all these keychain products even existed is kind of crazy. If you've ever raised sea monkeys, you know how sensitive they can be to temperature change. The thought of all those poor monkeys shoved into a bag and left in a hot classroom cubby hole is sad😢

[MountainHomeJerrel]

I don't actually have much interest in Sea Monkeys but your channel is just so awesome, I really enjoy your videos. All these different enclosures, species, and various scientific information you share is so great to see. Thanks for sharing all this interesting stuff in such an engaging and likeable way.

I have been having sea monkeys for a number of years now and your videos are just amazing!!! and puts a smile on my face.

It's obvious from your other tiny tanks that sea monkeys don't mind confined spaces, but these would only be getting a tiny amount of oxygen, which seems like a problem. I also can't imagine the bubble surviving long, bouncing around with keys & such, but it's cute just to see it hanging from something for a short while. Thankyou again for trying out all these products!

[lovinradios]

your videos are being watched at my corner of a corporate giant, by my inclusion in your studies and videos, I have produced algae and a huge sea monkey ten gallon sunken ship sea society ... and all of the mangers from my work are buying the sea monkey kits and putting them on there desks. It is crazy but in the heart of Iowa, at a John Deere Facility, sea monkeys are thriving thanks to you. You have touched many hearts of many girl and boy grown adults...Thank You...

God, I’m not sure if I hate this or the watch more. Even for 12 hours. With this I’m thinking about vibrations if this went in a pocket, would turn the air bubbles into weapons. With the watch I’m thinking of the possible temperature increase…and the vibrations from walking etc. honestly, I wouldn’t be shocked with the “The Amazing Sea Monkeys Blender! Watch As Your Soup Is Made!”

It’s a cool slice from the past though, I’m so glad you double checked the seabubble - none of them got trapped in that hellhole.

Bloody amazing that you got the 8 year old eggs to hatch, that is so cool, I would love to get some old eggs hatching, to see if there’s any tricks I can use to revive them, and see what the oldest eggs I can use would be…

Love the part where the sea monkeys go into the aquarium and sea monkey all over the place 😂

[WolfmanLarryTalbot]

I believe I bought my Sea-Bubble stand-alone from a tank insert order form. I used to take them on short trips with me. My original Sea-Bubble is missing a stopper now, I bought some cork stoppers but never tried them. I agree with you that it should be all clear, . There is a larger all clear version that has two sides similar to the maze, but both sides can hold Sea-Monkeys. I think it came with one of the pirate kits. Keep up the great videos...

"It was clearly made for kids, and not a man-child in his 30's" omg😂 that was great! I laugh because i know how it goes, i am just a woman-child in my 30's😂 and this is pretty cool! Yes, not the best way to keep sea monkeys for extended periods of time😢 but i thought it was neat for just a short little stay!❤❤ and is that a new profile pic?! Love it and loved the video!

[mohamadhasbini]

Thev way he just passively aggressively went at the girl is ridiculous 😂😂😂😅😅

[stoneydoe]

I absolutely love the shape of this though

[tracey]

When I was little I sent away for a moose brand sea-monkey necklace that might have been the precursor to this, since the kit suggested adding it to a keychain if you didn't want to wear it.
It wasnt the friendship necklace design though as it was a real sphere with no backdrop
I specifically bought it so I could take a couple of mine to show and tell, but I only used it once as by lunchtime I started getting stressed out leaving the two I had caught bottled up all day. I released them back into their tank as soon as I got home and both were doing fine, but I didn't like that icky feeling of taking them from their home.

[JohnDoe-wnjo]

Really glad you changed your logo, the uncanny valley really was doing me in lol. Thx for all your hard work, will be enjoying many more of it in the future I'm sure.

[TodMachin]

“Creepy looking family” is right. That Big Slime Toys packaging disturbs me.

For short term incarceration, I think these devices are fine. All of the Sea-Monkey travel accessories are more of a gimmick and much less functional. I highly doubt that many kids left their Sea-Monkeys in their travel device for extended periods of time — if they used them at all. But as with most things in the world, using this requires implementing good judgement.

I’ve had countless Sea-Monkey travel accessories over the years and I’ve never put Sea-Monkeys in any of them. But as a gimmick, these things still amuse me and get my thumbs up. (So do your videos.)

Thanks for making the amazing videos!!! Keep up the good work
