Sea Monkey Tank Setup | Helpful Tips!

How to set up a Sea Monkey tank and tips to grow them to adulthood.

In this video I show how to start a new Sea Monkeys ocean zoo tank, with instructions and tips on a time lapse of their growth to adulthood under the microscope. Brine Shrimp are easy to hatch and culture so in this video I show you how to aerate their tank and use a heat mat / pad. I've been growing artemia colony for many years now so have plenty of experience with feeding them microalgae too.

Really intuitive dude! My sister was obsessed with sea monkeys when they “came out” in early 2000’s! It’s her 34th birthday today and got this set up as a surprise for her cause it’s just epically nostalgic! This vid will be her go to for proper SM care. Nicely done man! 🤙

This is one of the best Seamonkey tutorials I have ever seen there’s so many tips in here that I’ve never seen online. I really hope you keep making content because to be honest, you really deserve more views and subscribers. Also I love the quality of the videos it looks great.

They're definitely super cute when they're at the naupliar stage. I like to call the nauplii "little flippy flappers" because of how they swim <3

I've delved so much into the world of sea monkeys and little animals after getting gifted a tank as a graduation present, and studying biology across several schools has helped me understand how to let my little friends thrive. this is my entry comment!

I'm getting my first tank ready to start at the moment. I'm in the UK and my house gets very cold, even in summer, so I'm taking my time to make sure the water is the right temp (using heat mat and thermostat) and everything is set up correctly. I'm excited to put the packets in and see babies soon. Just gotta wait till I'm home from my holiday to see family next week! Thank you for the advise in your video it's very helpful to have it all in one place to come back to! Good luck to everyone in the give away! :)

Thank you so much! I love your videos! I almost bought a microscope but I though my husband would have killed me haha! It’s so nice to see them up close!

I love sea monkeys. They've always been my special interest.

Sea monkeys are so nostalgic for me, I love them!

[Katie-ufvd]

Your videos always put a smile on my face!! Sea Monkeys are so nostalgic for me and where always my favorite growing up I had almost every single tank you showed at one point in time….the watch was always my favorite!!

Very well done tutorial! I certainly could have used your advice back in the 80s when I was a little kid getting his first Sea Monkey kit at Toys R Us. I remember being completely enamored by these little creatures and thinking they were actual aliens. I had no idea what I was doing and didn’t have the patience to read the instructions :). Fast forward 35 years and I’ve kept and bred all kinds of aquatic life. Your IG posts (and now YouTube videos) have rekindled my love of these cute “aliens.” Thanks for the great content!!

Here from Tiktok and thanks for the tips! I’ve had my sea monkey colony since September 2021 i went from having lots and lots of sea monkeys down to one female. There are lots of babies but they don’t ever seem to make it to adulthood. Would you be able to make a video on tips on how to maintain your sea monkey colony? Thanks!

Love this channel! Even though you aren't a child, I see how much you really love these creatures and you aren't afraid to admit it! I found this channel after I started another colony of brine shrimp. I've had a lot of brine shrimp, triop, and sea monkey colonies before and I decided to revisit the old hobby. My only complaint is that you don't upload enough! Good luck continuing your sea monkey journey!

[Fittrendz]

I love the sea monkey parents you have outside the tank. They look proud. 😆 thanks for sharing!

[irvinalcaraz]

Here from your TikTok. So glad to have found you as sea monkeys are a great memory from childhood!

I feed my sea monkeys smaller amounts throughout the week too. I definitely noticed better results with doing it that way.
