Went to the Toy R'us at Jurong pt today n saw Sea monkey.. didn see it for quite sometime.. still remember sec sch time when its sold over the counters at 7-11s.. its not some kinda monkey tt can live underwater but Sea Monkey is actually a hybrid.. some kinda brine shrimp tt is too small for consumption n its abit hairy.. eee.. anyway its really kinda amazin la.. the Seamonkeys can remain viable in their eggs for quite a few yrs n puttin dem into ultrapure water (a packet of crystals tt they claim can clean up the impurities) can make them hatch... smth like germplasm storage in higher plants lydat.. but its known as cryptobiosis.. Aeration is required but doesn need build in sparger in the tank but juz pump a few times with a pasteur pipette can le.. requires feedin once a wk... but didn mention anythin bout changin the water thou.. later get a full think of larvae...


But quite sad case.. its a life lehz.. not juz A life... is ALOT of life in a packet of eggs.. some ppl treasure it as a pet but other juz throw dem away after a couple of months? yet its sold in toy r'us... the scientist treat dem as toys only lo.. n it couldn survive outside the formula so tt they wun get out to the open environment.. quite kelian also.. but they are truly some amazin creature.. healthy adult seamonkeys have a green, brown or black streak runnin down their backs while dead ones have a deadly shade of pink n become black eventually.. Seamonkeys reproduce with uncontrollable spinning and seizing at the bottom of the tank.. weird creatures yeah.. they reproduce sexually and asexually and mating can last for days.. n on top of all these they are born with a single eye and grows 2 more when they mature.. finally losin 1 when they become an adult.. n even breathe thru their legs.. amazin watery creatures aint they...


yupz im tempted but more towards curious but nopez i aint gettin any.. $22+ for an aquarium.. didn one a whole aquarium of hairy shrimps.. duh
