Growing the viral AQUA DRAGONS! 2 month update!!

[@rebeccadarling7176]

"They are thriving!" Show like 10 out of hundreds that managed to survive.

[@ahrngel]

That’s how it is with most baby animals that are born in bigger numbers otherwise there would be overpopulation

[@cucumbersalad6555]

They often cannibalize when young as in nature, as they live in slowly evaporating puddles in the desert so it's a race to lay eggs before dying of suffocation.

[@mrlmfao1011]

It's for survival, in custody most of them can be grown to adults if cared for correctly. How do you think breeders make profit? ​@@ahrngel

That is apparently a thing tho. I'm no expert on taking care of any fish or sea creatures but a simple Google search showed me that yeah thats what you do. Cause fish still breathe oxygen??

[@ginaspazz135]

In case you were wondering why your tank is getting cloudy, you are feeding too much. They give you those big scoops so you have to order more food quickly. Try doing like 1/3 of that scoop. Had this exact kit until i decided to move them to a 1 gallon tank with a bubbler

Lol, sea monkeys have been around a long time. In the 60's and 70's they advertised them as monkeys. The picture on the package was monkeys sitting in a room with their family watching TV and doing family things. Well you can just imagine how 6 year old me was so disappointed when they were just little swimming dust particals.

[@TinaSaysWhat]

If you let the water evaporate when they all die, you can reuse the grit, which contains more eggs. Basically your mimicking a dry cycle. They can keep going and going.

[@escapedgoat5865]

Really

[@JubbysDragons]

​@@escapedgoat5865 brine shrimp eggs that dry are still viable, different researchers have said different amount of times, 2 yrs, 10 yrs and even 100 yrs.

[@JBunny7482]

This explains so much from when I was a kid!!!

[@mrsd2025]

​@@JBunny7482 😂😂 for real!!!!

[@InfiniteMessages]

@@escapedgoat5865It makes sense since the reason the eggs are able to stay shelf stable has to do with the way their eggs have adapted to survive in the wild. The eggs can actually stay alive for 10 years if they are dry.

You should go buy a 5 gallon tank and a air bubbler and some aquarium salt. It can’t be table salt you need to go to your local pet store and buy aquarium salt for salt water tanks. You could even get a large fish bowl. And a net to scoop them out.

[@ronnie-lynn]

Even a 3 gallon. I saw one on Amazon for 40$ CAD so it would be worth cheap in USD

[@lilacheart_]

what kind of net? wouldn’t a normal fish net have the eggs/little ones fall through? 😅

[@datbadassunicorn2832]

@@lilacheart_ a small one with small netting. You might also want to look into some kind of food you can feed them.

[@patwalker5133]

With the size of the aqua dragons AKA sea monkeys, wouldn't they get sucked up by the filter. They are the size of algae.

[@datbadassunicorn2832]

@@patwalker5133 you could get a sponge and put it over top the filter to make it not as rough in the tank. Also a bubbler.

[@brendaburgner-williams8515]

Sea monkeys aka Brine Shrimp. 🦐 Brine shrimp are usually used as food for fish. Also, brine shrimp don't live very long. Foggy water usually means they are being fed too much. Cut the food you give them in half. One more thing, you can get a small bubbler for their tank. That will help with the needed oxygen flow.

[@jackiejenkins4078]

The old becomes new! They were called Sea Monkeys when I was little, but yes they're brine shrimp. I'm in my mid fifties now, but I can still remember finding these fascinating and being so thankful that my parents got them for me. Great learning gift for kids! ❤

[@Omnibushido-]

They’re still called sea monkeys. This is just another brand.

[@supriyakrishnamurthy]

Anyway give us more and regular updates on your dragons pls, it looks interesting and I can’t find anymore dragon video updates on your page!

[@JulieLarson-d5y]

Messy water says you're over feeding your seamonkeys. I've been taking them every year for 8 years. With my young 2nd grade class of children studying the Ocean. Take care they'll have babies. Get a second tank to separate the adults from the babies, or adults will eat new babies. Lots of fun.

[@KawaiiKermit]

She also needs to you know… keep them in salt water and not fresh water since brine shrimp live in salt water and will die far faster in fresh water. Also “put oxygen into the tank”, brine shrimp don’t need much to actually thrive and multiply, yet she’s killing them off so effortlessly.

[@method_squirtle]

Plants will help keep your tank cleaner for longer as well

This is getting so much more interesting than 90 day fiance! Maybe we can create an alternative show for dragons. So exciting! The aguadragons of Beverly hills!

[@sophiasilvester06]

Please give more updates. I love your channel 💞

[@muffinlove6133]

A small cheap air pump helps a lot with small aquariums to keep the water oxygenated. Also, keep the tank from direct sunlight. It causes algae to grow faster as they are basically a type of seaweed.

[@Evietheblack-cat]

Hi, I have some advise on them, I got them for my sisters 7th birthday and she loved them, the only thing she did was stare at them for hours and they lived for 9 months, because every day I would clean the tank secretly because for the 2 days she had them, she had forgotten to clean it, and yes I cleaned it for 9 months, and every year she asks for aqua dragons, ofc I can't say no, so it's really wholesome and hope you take my advice ❤🎉😊.

[@wd5739]

LMAO WAIT WHAT! she really said "they need sea water to survive so i'm just gonna let the old ones die and hatch new ones. Problem solved!"

[@sonyacarnduff3078]

I had these when i was like 4. I forgot about them and my dad toke care of thsm so well tjey were basically his

[@udonkey431]

At least u had someone take care of them, the ones me and my sisters had died 😭😭we just kept getting more then forgetting abt them

[@summar1z3d]

guys these are brine shrimp! they barely have pain receptors and are very very hardy so this is fine imo their usually fed to other fish

[@CatNipChip-zh4ki]

OMG I did NOT know you were supposed to clean the tank!!! 😮😮😮 My aqua dragons sadly passed away about two months ago 😭😭😭

[@MitchieDuckie]

You have to clean the tank with any aquatic animal....stagnant water will eventually get toxic for them

[@Noahhhhhuh]

If you get a 5 gallon tank with an aerator from the pet store, they’ll have a way longer life, also don’t feed them as much as you are. Do you like a third or a fourth of what you’re doing now

[@Star60WasTaken]

All looks good but I would really suggest not cleaning the tank out with tap water, most countries make their water safe to drink using chlorine and while trace amounts doesn't hurt is it can really hurt aquatic life, it might be a bit more expensive but I suggest just filtered water to clean.

[@CoconutShorts-e2o]

Aqua dragons? This is the first time that I heard about them😅. But they look cool😊!

[@ADHD_Ac1dBra1n]

Please put them in a bigger tank, the brands that sell sea monkeys/aqua dragons usually give you a pack of 100-10 eggs, and clearly barely any of them ever make it to adulthood because of the straight up terrible conditions people put them in. So please put them in a bigger tank, no matter how small they are I feel like most people would still consider this cruel

[@jeffarthur8324]

I can’t help but feel bad for them they have such a small tank😢

[@AngelinaClaxon]

Im so glad you used what you did for the oxygen. Most people use a straw and that can harm the fish because what we breath in is oxygen but when we exhale is carbon dioxide and it can harm the fish😮

[@jennblue3757]

They don’t thrive because it’s not the right conditions for brine shrimp. They need chilled water, moving water and high salinity. So basically in those small situps, all you’re doing is hatching them to die because they don’t have the right conditions.

[@ShahrandaWallace]

❤❤❤🥳 I’m so happy for you girl. I’m gonna buy that right now. I also bought this thing and it’s from California. It’s actually it’s a flower tree. You can grow it if you want it I can get you one. I got two for free.

Mom got me seamonkeys as a kid, eventuallly we ran out of food and just assumed they would die because we didn't know where to get more. These MF's lived for 2 more YEARS just eating each other and having more babies. They only died when a moth drowned in the tank and I guess poisoned them

Please don't use tap water for rinsing. There will still be chlorine in the tank from that. Either rinse with tap water and let sit overnight or use the water that you fill your tank with.
