Sea Monsters! | Unboxing & Review (RARE!)

[@TodMachin]

LOVE the bigger tank. LOVE the dominant illustrations and graphic design. Both are things I wish Transcience / Dragon-I would embrace … a larger tank and a bigger, bolder logo and characters on the packaging. Agree, John. It’s a complete and total direct ripoff of the Ocean-Zoo … but if Sea-Monkeys aren’t going to give their customers what they ask for, this is the consequence. Competition. I don’t normally buy knockoffs but, for the reasons listed above, I’m excited to add this to the collection. Thanks for tracking this foreign kit down and sharing it. Like you, I previously only had the few stagnant internet images to drool over. It’s great to see the real deal in action. Thanks also to your online contact that did the legwork tracking these down and following through. Much appreciated. - Tod

[@pico-cosmos]

Totally agree about the packaging! Even though the tank is a ripoff, they did manage to get so many other things right with this kit. It’s a shame it’s no longer in production but I’m glad I was still able to put this video together. Glad to hear you enjoyed it Tod :) now on to the Magiquarium video 🙌

[@pictur3scrazy]

I wish so bad we could get tanks in that scale! The company should understand that today’s keepers are largely adults that want to do the best for their little pets. It’s extremely hard to accommodate a bubbler and heater in the Tanks currently on the market. Thank you for showing us what could and might be!

[@pico-cosmos]

I’m currently working on getting some Sea-Monkey tank lids 3D printed that can easily accommodate a heater wire and airline tube :) I’ll hopefully be able to share more about it soon 👍

[@pictur3scrazy]

@@pico-cosmos oooo I’m definitely interested, can’t wait to find out more!

[@karrahklinger2573]

The illustrations set the expectations of the consumer much better! It could have been a coincidence, but do you think they were shown as green and orange because those who ate algae would look green and those that ate the provided food would look more brown/orange? It could also just be a coincidence, of course- The screw to hold on the bottom piece feel reassuring to me, as it was something that made me feel anxious about the base Sea Monkey tanks- I always found myself feeling scared that it might fall off if it was bumped by mistake? I vaguely remember being given sea monkeys for my siblings and I to take care of, and being confused by what they would look like- I was expecting little translucent vaguely humanoid creatures, and felt let down by the odd appearance of the shrimp. If children were shown these illustrations instead, I think they would find the shrimp much more fascinating!

[@pico-cosmos]

Oo you might be onto something about the colours there! And the base on the Sea-Monkey tank is very secure. I removed one recently and it was super difficult lol

[@Totalyrealman]

You have been killing it with the videos lately! Love your style of editing! Also, you should try to sea how well daphnia can thrive in a sea monkey tank!

[@pico-cosmos]

Thanks! I have Daphnia in a Sea-Monkey tank at the moment :D they’re doing great in there 👌

[@Crackpot_Astronaut]

"Sea Monsters" is waaay better than "sea monkeys"! Sets a realistic expectation while giving an exciting vibe.

[@robyn6521]

Love the larger tank! I was surprised to see the lid was two pieces. I'm a little torn if I'd buy such a thing because I have a DIY half gallon tank I really like. If sea monkeys brand produced a larger tank with built in heating, air pump, and lights... well, that'd be really tempting.

[@Gettingrareofficial]

Is so interesting how many sea-monkey type creatures are everywhere around the world!

[@pico-cosmos]

It’s quite amazing how many different versions of this product have existed over the years huh! I keep discovering new ones I’ve never heard of before

[@junchan_3200]

Where I am from we have magic fish (which is a ripoff of the killifish egg using brine shrimp) and American crayfish. But they all have too much egg and no food while instructing to feed milk or egg so I don’t see anyone could grow them 😢

Yeah I was stoked too! Less than 1% hatch rate but still cool that we got a few :)

[@TorontoJon]

Another great video, John, and I think that Argentinian 'Sea Monsters' tank and kit look amazing. I definitely think larger tanks are better and more humane to raise brine shrimp properly and to provide them with more space and variety. They are after all, living creatures and not toys, so the smaller kits always made me shudder a bit while these larger kits are the right direction to go. All the best as always. :)

[@pico-cosmos]

Yeah I totally agree 👌 I feel like this tank size should really be the standard. Hopefully Sea-Monkeys comes out with a “Deluxe” kit one day with a larger tank and some extra accessories

[@Sinserg]

I am impressed with the resilience of these little critters, thanks for sharing!

I would absolutely buy an extra large Zoo tank, that would be awesome as an official sea monkey release!

I LOVE how big it is 😳 the thousands of eggs was overkill though but survival of the fittest I guess? 😅

[@pico-cosmos]

I've added a USB powered light into the lid today - it's great! Absolutely love this tank

[@THEprincessFirefly]

I would LOVE a bigger tank like this one! Those tiny tanks are just to small, these animals deserve a bigger tank.

[@pico-cosmos]

I’d have to agree with you! It feels like I’m taking much better care of them when the tank is bigger

[@robertkillingsworth7149]

[@EddVCR]

I love brine shrimps, they’re so neat! I’m binging your videos and you’re making me want to get a kit. I’d like to gather knowledge on how to keep them happy and healthy, and your channel is a great resource. Thank you!

[@babygirloct14]

I absolutely love watching your videos, have been watching them with my son who loves sea monkeys. It started as a nostalgia moment, and quickly grew into a desire to actually try a tank again as an adult. Thank you for all you do!

[@pico-cosmos]

Aw that’s so great to hear 🥰 I hope you guys have good luck when you try raising your own 🤞

[@anie6142]

If I had the chance to buy this tank (with or without the kit) I would. A larger tank is definitely fun and it's better for accommodating a water heater and air stone, which in comparison to a regular Ocean Zoo or a Magic Castle tank are too big and occupy a lot of the swimming space for the shrimp. If they come up with an official large Ocean Zoo I'd probably be one of the first people in line to buy it xD. Did you ever find out what was the food they came with? Great video, hope you have a great day 💜!

[@pico-cosmos]

Yeah I totally agree! When I’m done with these videos I usually retire the tank, but I think I’m going to keep this one going. And nope! No idea what the food is 😅

[@dizzydragon]

I remember seeing an ad in an argentina channel that somehow transmits to México, i was kind of interested since the tank looked a little bigger, love the marketing, if i was a kid and Saw that box i would cling to it so my parents would Buy it for me 😂😂, theres also an italian kit known as skifidol di mare that has really cool cartoonish designs, i think that one got cancelled cause the idea of them being alive creatures being boxed freaked some people out

[@AidanCaDrago]

I want to see more things like this especially with the way the lid works for accommodating heaters and stuff

[@BlackArroToons]

Great Sea Monsters video. A relief 6 or 7 babies hatched of the many in the pouch. I larger tank is something I wanted to see, yes. Thanks for the updates and glad they were able to experience life after 8 years of being dormant.

[@12horsesinatrenchcoat]

I'm still binging your whole channel and this one is really interesting to me. I think I absolutely would buy this kit if presented with the option between this and the regular ocean zoo. My main qualm with brine shrimp kits is that they tend to be catered towards kids who will treat their new pets as disposable. Without proper heat and oxygen the brine shrimp die off at around the time kids lose interest and move on to the next new and shiny toy. I think I'd genuinely be willing to spend money on a desktop aquarium catered to brine shrimp housing, with a small bubbler, heater, and grow lights built in. A lot of tanks that are advertised as being complete tanks for bettas but are actually way too small COULD be slightly changed to be good tanks for brine shrimp

[@pico-cosmos]

Yeah that’s very true! A decent brine shrimp tanks would be so good as a desktop aquarium. It’s a shame nobody makes one

[@12horsesinatrenchcoat]

@@pico-cosmos Maybe one day! It's not hard to find someone who can manufacture dang near anything. I have the knowledge but nowhere near the resources or I'd set out on a grand adventure to do it myself. I think plenty of adults would love a nostalgic brine shrimp tank with the knowledge that it's an appropriate, comfortable environment for the shrimp.

[@matiasgandolfo6122]

"It originally retailed for 350 argentine pesos, which was somewhere around 25 US dollars at the time." is a pretty crazy sentence given a single dollar is around 900 pesos nowadays. Either way I remember seeing this ad, but my cool mom (allegedly) never managed to find them in any toy store and I ended up getting a nice dinosaur for my birthday instead. All in all I loved the dinosaur and in retrospect I probably wouldn't have been able to keep any of the poor sea monsters given the ammount of eggs and how little extra information I'd have at that age.

[@patriciobarreiro]

The most awaited video!!!🤓🤓🤓 Thanks for your work John!!!

[@pico-cosmos]

Thanks again for sending me these Sea Monsters, Patricio! I had a great time making this video :D I’m going to keep this tank going to see if I can establish a full sized colony in there :)

[@hsip1000]

The fact you said "the dogs looks kinda high" 😂 Also it's crazy how much they costed back then. $300+! I think I'll stick with the Dollar store kits 😅😅😅😅

[@WolfmanLarryTalbot]

Nice video. Yes, I would like to see larger tanks. I love the Sea-Monkeys Executive Super-Sized Suite. I am building some custom tanks that will be larger, because I believe it is better for seeing the Sea-Monkeys and provides more areas to swim.

[@pico-cosmos]

Yeah it's cool that Transcience offers the ESSS, I just wish they would have a more interesting tank for that set. Something like the one in this video, or perhaps a larger Ocean Volcano style tank. Good luck with your DIY tank! Sounds like a cool project 👍

[@kenmcguire2427]

The Mars Tank is my favorite of all time, but I do plan to set up a 1 gallon glass tank with a heater, airstone, black sand, and a small light. First, I want to see how long I can keep my Mars Tank going, and if It is still going strong after a year, I may go ahead and build the 1 gallon and transfer a couple pairs of adults to see what kind of colony they can create. Interesting that you stopped feeding them. I have a good amount of green in my Mars Tank, so I am going to cut back on feeding them for a while to see if their stomachs turn green like yours.

[@pico-cosmos]

The Mars tank is definitely my favourite themed one too! Any idea what shape you're going to go with for your 1 gallon tank? Yeah I basically stopped feeding them because I only had 6 and there was so much algae I figured additional food wasn't necessary. If I had 20+ I would've probably still fed them a little

[@kenmcguire2427]

@@pico-cosmos I would go for a 1 gallon cube, or a 1 gallon rectangle. As you stated, the only downside to the Mars tank is the curved plastic which distorts the view. A tank with flat walls will make a better view and gives more space for the Sea-Monkeys to swim. I like the depth of the 1 gallon cube for this purpose. Small enough to fit almost anywhere, easily maintainable, and yet big enough to have a real aquarium feel in regards to the size of the pets.

I've thought about bigger tanks for brine shrimp. I might give it a try. I have an old hexagonal beta tank I might see if I can get a colony going in

Hi! Would you ever make a discord server for sea monkeys?

[@jessicaisert869]

The Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys is and always will be my #1 favorite brand, but I do love 💕 to see and collect all types of brine shrimp kits as well. My guess is that since the Sea Monsters people made a replica molding of the Sea-Monkey brand tank, they probably did the same thing with the Sea-Monkey double sided yellow spoon as well. I would love 💗 to see Transcience come out with an official tank like this! Thanks for another amazing video!!

[@pico-cosmos]

I think you're definitely right about the spoon there - I'm sure they just copied the Sea-Monkeys one because it was easy 😅 Do you have any rare Sea-Monkey kits in your collection?

[@jessicaisert869]

@@pico-cosmos It depends on your definition of rare. I do have the Robo Diver Tank. That one seems to be pretty desirable in the Sea Monkey community. I also have the Super Sleuth Tank. I think that one is really cool, and one of my favorites, but doesn’t seem to be talked about or mentioned much ? I’m not sure 🤔 why ? The tank that is on the top of my list is the Explor-A-Sub tank. I haven’t seen many come up for sale. To me that one is pretty rare!

[@pico-cosmos]

You can use any tank you like really :) I think the regular Sea-Monkey ones are great, my only real issue with them is that they're so small. The stackable cube should work well, I think I've seen someone in the Sea-Monkey clubhouse facebook group use one of those 👍

[@pico-cosmos]

Was definitely a surprise to see hatchlings! That second packet really did seem damp so I figured all of the eggs would be ruined. A pleasant surprise ☺️

[@CamelotGaming]

Have you ever thought about putting Brine Shrimp into an actual tank with a substrate, plants, and aqua scapeing? Maybe even with small fish, snails, and other animals as like a self sustaining ecosystem?

[@pico-cosmos]

I have yeah.. but it’s complicated :/ Since they’re saltwater animals plants don’t really work too well, perhaps some kinda of macroalgae could work? I need to experiment more. I think any fish would probably eat the Brine Shrimp 😅 check out my video review for the Sea-Monkeys Big Show tank! I put snails in that one :)

[@CamelotGaming]

@@pico-cosmos Fish probably would but that is the circle of life there. Some shrimp will live obviously, especially with little nooks and crannies to hide in. They can't eat everything.

[@Nuttilicious]

oooh this tank is like a sea monkeys tank with everything an enthusiast wants. i love that it's bigger and has an actual useful lid that can accommodate an air line and heater. another thing that I love about this kit is that it treats brine shrimp like actual animals that are interesting as themselves and teaching their target audience about the real animals instead of a misleading mythification of Sea Monkeys. idk but from this lens it feels a little insulting that Sea Monkeys as a brand doesn't seem to see brine shrimp as interesting but rather just a marketing ploy to sell as much product as possible; also sometimes it feels as they think their target audience aren't smart enough to appreciate them by themselves if they were seen as actual animals. i might be nitpicking slightly though since other companies (even ones with better tanks than sea monkeys) seem to overload their packets with eggs which tend to lead to a crash and killing the entire culture before it has a chance to flourish. It's really interesting to see the comparisons through content like this, you've given me a lot to think about. Cheers, man.

[@pico-cosmos]

I think you're definitely right, though I've seen a bit of a shift in the approach of Sea-Monkeys recently where they're starting to focus more on the actual brine shrimp. They often include photos of a brine shrimp on the packaging now and their latest handbook has a section of brine shrimp photos too :) I really wish they would release some larger tanks though! I had so much fun with this kit 🎉

[@Nuttilicious]

I think you can cach them with the tube. Hold one side shut with your finger, put the other side in the water above a 'sea-monkey' and realise the finger so water with the creature goes in, you hold your finger again and can liift the little guy/girl out.

[@BeYou-Butterfly9036]

John, I just want to thank you for your info on this channel. I’ve been wanting to grow Sea Monkeys for years, but never could get them to live over a couple of days. I even wondered if they were a scam, until I found your channel. Now my newly hatched Sea Monkeys are thriving much more (and longer) than ever, and I bet they’ll be around longer than my past hatchlings! Also, if it’s okay, I need advice: in the tank are white floating dots. One website said these can kill the Sea Monkeys and need to be taken out immediately. I’ve fished a few out (with great difficulty!) and apparently I need ‘Sea Medic’, but they’re out of stock. My Sea Monkeys haven’t reached Day 5 to feed them yet, and I’m really worried they’ll suffocate. Any advice? Also, apologies for asking about Sea Monkeys under a video about Sea Monsters!

[@pico-cosmos]

Glad to hear my videos are helping :) and I would’ve worry about the white dots - as long as your baby Sea-Monkeys look healthy that’s all that matters. Remember to only feed them a TINY amount the first time, they really don’t need much at all

i now own a seamonkey tank and has around 15 adults and one of the females is carrying babies but she has not mated?

[@pico-cosmos]

Sounds like you’re doing a good job! Female Sea-Monkeys can reproduce through several methods - one of which is “parthenogenesis”, where she can produce clones of herself without mating :)

This is so epic ❤❤

Wasn’t there a sea monkey branded tank that was just a super sized ocean zoo?

[@pico-cosmos]

Unfortunately not

@@pico-cosmos I swear I’m remembering reading off from the instructions sheet that there was a tank double the size of an ocean zoo. This was for sure sea monkey branded stuff. I wish I still had that sheet this was years ago now like around 2016ish. I could be remembering wrong though.
