Sea-Monkeys Sea-Bubble | RARE!

[@Fvanevski]

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".

[@pico-cosmos]

😂😂 that is ADORABLE. I might have to start giving my Sea-Monkeys burial ceremonies too

[@dlakoba4459]

I still have mine that I ordered from their catalog....... anyway I took mine to my Russian Orthodox church one Sunday ,,,,,,,,,,,,,

[@compassrose1466]

The fact y’all felt the need to have faux tears to respect the passing of the sea monkey is genuinely really cute! I hope you and your cousin are doing well and hopefully not needing to do my sea monkey funerals LMAO

[@oasntet]

I'm pretty sure I owned that same bubble necklace! It also did not last long. It was a really thin plastic, maybe LDPE? And it cracked incredibly easily. I can only find one trace of it online, a single scan of an illustrated ad from a comic book. So I don't think the product was around for long, probably for the best.

[@timwolfe5575]

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.

[@pico-cosmos]

Ah I think those were the very first Port-A-Pets! Tod Machin has a bunch of photos of them on his IG page. They’re quite rare now, I’ve never seen one for sale

[@hattie302]

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.

[@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...

[@pico-cosmos]

Yep you’re right! There was an all clear version in some of the later Pirate Gold kits. I’ll be reviewing that set on the channel later this year :)

[@lovinradios6495]

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...

[@SLOWPOKERODRIGUEZ2]

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😢

[@dizzydragon]

In theory that means that the sea monkeys that came up from the old kit have been selected to survive for longer periods of time, keep this lineage pattern going and maybe You could get a sea monkeys strain that last 20 years haha, just a tought

[@benjaminstewart4336]

I can't believe you got those 8 yr old eggs to hatch, you should keep updating us on their progress.

[@oasntet]

I mentioned on another video that I had a seamonkey-branded necklace in the early 90s (or maybe the late 80s?). After watching all of the other vintage product reviews, I went looking for it, but it seems to be extremely rare. I've only seen a single mention of it online, a pinterest scan of an illustrated ad for it from a comic book, but no pictures of the bubble itself. It may have been called the "living necklace" but I'm not sure if that was an official name. Compared to this keychain, is was round, nearly perfectly spherical but for the knob at the top, and entirely clear, not half blue or purple. Unlike the friendship locket, mine was a spherical bubble of plastic, with a cap on top that a bit of cord went through. Anyway, the idea goes back at least to the late 80s. Sadly, it was a very cheap plastic and it cracked easily, which I'm sure was a sad day for a lot of kids (it was for me). Hopefully this newer one is made a bit tougher.

[@pico-cosmos]

The living sea gem! Check out the worthpoint website - they have expired ebay auctions. You’ll find some pics there

[@oasntet]

@@pico-cosmos Yeah! That's the one. Looks like it was also sold as a kit at one point with the 70s-era packet labels. I guess I got mine near the end of that product's life, which probably should have been a lot shorter than it was...

[@KaleKnight300]

that's pretty amazing they can hatch from eggs that old!

[@joshuamstark]

The way I carry my keys, probably not a great idea! Great video tho!

[@xV8y]

Monkey + chain sometimes go well in the same sentence.

[@GrapeSoda66]

Hey Pico, I got the same heat mat as you yesterday but without thermostat thing. Will the temperature still be feasible for hatching?

[@WaterySquash]

I think it’s a bit odd like the to different colours just make it a bit weird and it’s to small for seamonkeys

[@pico-cosmos]

Yeah they definitely should have made it at least a little bigger

[@anie6142]

Personally? I'd probably leave the keychain aquarium in the past. I could be absentminded at times so imagine a child having that and losing it with the Sea-Monkeys inside or forgetting they are in there and leave them for hours or even days on end. Poor critters 😅! On the other hand...I want that Purple Ocean Zoo, hands down. I want it just like I want the Pink Ocean Zoo that came with the friendship locket/necklace bubble. I don't care much for the keychain or the necklace itself (the reason for their collective value), I just want those fun pastel pink and purple Ocean Zoos for my collection 😢! Anyhow, if the keychains were to make a comeback maybe with a few design changes, like a bigger orifice to put the Sea-Monkeys in and out and also slightly bigger tank too might be favorable. I know the Aqua Maze keychain aquarium said in the packaging a minimum of 6hrs with a maximum of 12hrs for keeping the Sea-Monkeys in but it would be preferable to have in a new packaging to use in big bold letters the words "Temporarily" and "Few Hours" maybe a max time of 4hrs and to not take them to school. I admit I had mine for close to 10hrs in the keychain when I took them to work with me that day in the keychain but I was closely monitoring them all the time something a child might not really do. I do think kids can be responsible but something small like a keychain is easy to become forgettable I think. Like look at the Tamagotchis, how many of those died in the 90s because of neglect and school? Anyway, this was a great review and I'm glad the eggs hatched from the old packets! I think the limit for them being viable is 10 years, more than that and it's likely they won't hatch (from my experience), keep up the amazing work you're doing and I hope you have a great day!

1. Keep the tank in the warmest part of your house, perhaps up somewhere high. Tbh the USB aquarium heater is fairly inexpensive and since it’s only 10 watts it’s very cheap to run. But yeah.. there’s no super easy way to keep it warm. 2. I have a video showing how to do this on my channel :)

I could be wrong but it seems like the name Sea Bubble was also used for a necklace in the '80s which had a transparent plastic sphere with a gold cap and a red or white cord. I can't seem to find much about it on the net except that the predecessor was made of GLASS! WTF getting that broken on your chest by a swinging door or something would be so painful and dangerous!

Some uninformed kid would absolutely shake that thing around and murder the entire ecosystem.

[@Nuttilicious]

Finally a success with old packets! Can I ask what made you have a good feeling that these ones would hatch? I remember you saying at one point that you didn't think a different old packet would hatch because they've taken some moisture, but these seem to have taken in some moisture as well and you were optimistic. Also, for a clear keychain enclosure, it's really weird that they put the manufacturing info on the bubble itself, it would've made more sense on the carabiner itself so it doesn't block the view if they had to put it on the product itself instead of the paperwork in the box. I agree that the dual tone thing is weird, you'd think it's cheaper to make the entire clear but they seem intent on making it more difficult to see the sea monkeys as soon as you put them in there, plus I don't like the idea of the little shrimp getting sloshed around as a kid runs around in school.

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…

[@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.)

Just a maximum of 2. 2. And, by all means, NOT FOR CHILDREN. They would be running up and down with them, maybe placing them directly under the sun, forgetting the key chain on school, risks of loosing it and/or getting it open and draining it. This could be targeted to actual adults that would know how to care for them.

btw, foot long sunken ships , in my case a sunken submarine that is broken in half, is the center of my sea monkey mass scale sea society. I am culturing Porphyridium cruentum culture, which is red algae , and sea monkeys are always red in color and the buildup on the tank itself is red as well.

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.

Hi John, Im from Greece and as i kid i loved sea monkeys although i never managed to keep them alive for too long. Fun fact: sea monkeys were discontinued in Greece (around 2002-2003 i would say) because our stupid politicians thought that it was some kind of weird creatures created in a mad scientist lab! Yes, sea monkeys became an issue in greek parliament. The product hasn't been released here again since then. However, sea monkey eggs (or artemia/brine shrimp) are sold in aquarium shops (as fish food :( ). Since i dont have the water purifier and the food packets, i'm just trying to raise them using himalayan salt (i will try to find aquarium sea salt if i experience any problems with it) and spirulina powder. 7 days after the hatching and some sea monkeys are dying. My diy container seems to have a kind of slimy stuff that sea monkeys get trapped (it could be fungus). Anyway, have you ever done a diy sea monkeys? Do you have any tips? Also, i saw in one video of yours that you first fed sea monkeys 5-6 after the hatching. Is it safe to do so?

Solid review, No hate on the review or reviewer. The sea bubble is just a bad idea. I get they are brine shrimp but this is one step from those keychain bubbled animals he mentioned. It’s still a living animal that your shaking around with every movement you make. We got something similar over 15 years ago from a relative that was visiting from Thailand. I felt bad and didn’t wear mine but my brother did and the monkeys were dead by the next day.

I had the purple one of these growing up. I never used it outside of my room because it leaked water out the rubber stopper and I didnt want seamonkey water all over my backpack. I also figured if they didn't dry out over the day shaking them around would kill them

very cool to look at, but definitely a relic of the past. there are still products and toys intended to transport or play with pets like this (people are always doing this to fish, but think of people putting their cats in those plastic domed backpacks that can be dangerous for example) and it's definitely not good for the animals :(
