Sea-Monkeys Ocean Adventure | RARE!

An unboxing and review of the Sea-Monkeys Ocean Adventure kit.

In this video I give a history of the Ocean Adventure tank and compare it to the sea monkeys Ocean Zoo, Ocean Volcano, Magic Castle, Mars & Robo Diver tanks.

You nailed it, John. The good, the bad and the ugly about this tank. Also the massive mystery as to how this kit made it to retail sales with such an obvious design flaw.

I like the built in lights as a gimmick but I’ve never used any of them other than to initially try them out. They only seem to be good for short term atmospheric viewing and nothing long term. I’ll stick with indirect sunlight and grow lamps for that.

With minimal modifications, this tank could be re-released, renamed and repackaged into a decent product. Sadly, it either won’t happen or it will take so long I’ll be long dead and buried.

Thanks for the shout out as well. I’m always happy to help support your endeavors where I can.

Like you, I’m curious to read other people’s opinions on this tank. Is it worth reconfiguring and re-releasing or just scrap it and move on.

Another great video. — Tod

PS: I can always tell when you’ve mastered a new video-editing technique. The large “GIVEAWAY” text coming in behind you was a nice touch.

“The adventure you go on realizing your sea monkeys won’t survive”😂
Great review, as always!

I love the light feature, its super cool to see them look so bright under the different colors. I kinda like the printed coral at the bottom, it gives it a little character. Super cool vid!

[victoriadimaunahan]

The light is so cute but i cant get over the fact that the tank is giving off peanut butter jar vibes😂

Like the fact that its too large to properly work for the packs is absolutely sending me, and the light turning the sea monkeys into a rave especially since they keep swimming towards it every time it flashes

[crimsonarrow]

Love larger tanks and would love to see more larger tanks released as well. Would be great if they re-released this again.

Would love to potentially see a video or guide on how to mix more seawater for the seamonkies as well. Thanks again for the interesting content.

"maybe it's the adventure you go on to realizing your sea monkeys won't survive" the shade cracked me up LMAO

[statickitten]

I actually really enjoy this Ocean Adventure tank. The more circular design makes me feel like the sea monkeys have more room to swim around. That searchlight is also an awesome addition that I've noticed a lot of tanks don't have. I know in my future I plan on creating a huge sea monkey colony that has a cat themed tank.

No but, the first thing I have to say is WHY ARE THE SEA MONKEYS SO CUTEEE!! Those cute little eyes and feathery fins are soo pretty to look at!! And about the whole adventure tank, compared to the smaller ones, I love the large size of the container and it seems more safe to me to handle. Plus I personally love those magnified blobs on the body because it is real fun to watch the sea monkeys from that view. Also I like that air pumper for dissolving the salts rather than just stirring it viciously. But above all, this whole adventure tank is so pretty and beautiful, the colours, the sea monkeys, the design everything! And I loved your video on how you explained every detail, loved every bit of it, also I came to know a lot ! Thanks a lot!! Keep it up!

I haven't owned sea monkeys before but I've been very interested in them lately as I had to leave my fish tank with my family when I moved, so I feel like it's a unique way to experience a similar thing with a bit more convenience than you'd have with a massive fish tank. Love the videos, and love seeing all the ways you can more adequately care for these little beings:)

Hi Pico. Woo Hoo!!!
Congrats on your channel milestones and success. Ocean Adventure Tank is cute but larger size might be needed and your recommendations are spot on. Great video!!!👏👏👏👏👏👏

[hattie]

Thank you for doing all these videos on the different tanks! I tried finding information on all the different types of kits in the history of sea monkeys, but it was surprising that a record like that didn't really come up. I appreciate how thorough you are! Would love to see more on the different regional availabilities of tanks 😊
The larger size is pretty appealing in this one, but it's pretty wild they just never thought about how that would affect the salinity with no adjustments to the amount of salt 😂

[grave-slave]

I actually really like this tank, the light feature is really cool and makes me think they should make lids with lights for existing tanks that you could buy as an add on kind of thing. Great video ❤

[TalalShaikh]

hi Pico awesome videos as usual
i am new to sea monkeys and i am extremely fascinated about the tiny cute creatures
but i have researched alot about them and learning how to care for them

[destturner]

This is a cute tank, reminds me of a jelly jar In a way. If I had a sea monkey tank it would have to go in the kitchen since it's the only place with good indirect sunlight at my place so I guess it works out!!

[gabadiamond]

I absolutely adore your passion for sea-monkeys. It makes your videos feel so genuine

[ZaneOri]

I definitely agree that I think the light feature would be cooler if you could pick a light, or maybe even modify the light so it could help the algae growth instead of just being aesthetically nice. I think this tank is interesting because I could see maybe growing the sea monkeys in this sort of nursery set up and then getting them a bigger tank I could decorate on my own and promote more algae growth with more stuff. I'd love to see this tank with things like in the Japanese castle tanks, where there's molded plastic designs that algae can grow on!

[Zveebo]

Great video as always! I actually really love the light – hopefully they bring the idea back at some point with a bit of better design and more options to control the light.

[stoneydoe]

I love that you review them honestly. Your definitely my favorite channel to relax take a breath and crotchet while listening too. I definitely wish they would come out with more themed tanks and eaven though they aren't necessary cute little accessories for the tanks like sea diamonds 😍

[BuckyMeow]

3:25 I feel bad for laughing but I was caught off guard by this joke LOL Also the tank with the lights on kinda reminded me of a lava lamp, really cool feature!

[diversaml]

I love these videos. Definitely has brought the nostalgia back of wanted to raise sea-monkey again. I used to have one of the more regular tanks but with the projector/ light lid. I don’t know where that kit went of course lol. I think Ocean Adventure kit would look just a little better if there was a more interesting substrate in it.
