Magiquarium,Blue

Disappointed of the quality. Bought it twice and neither is good. Shouldn’t waste the time

Glow in the dark was so pathetic unlike the advertised 6 hours, it barely glows after a minute lets not to say only part of it glow. Hatch rate was also poor, only saw 3-4 shrimps.. had better hatch rate than this before

Shocking headline I know, but bear with me, it's important. So, our 15-year-old dog died. He was very loved, and I’m not ready for a new dog just yet. My kids (5 & 8) don’t really understand and have been asking for every pet under the sun. Finally, I remembered sea monkeys exist, and thought I’d give those a shot. The kids were psyched, they loved the process of setting up the tank, we followed the directions, and they hatched after a few days! They were very tiny, you really had to look closely, but the distraction worked and they quit asking about getting a dog! Then about a week later, I couldn’t find them anymore. I couldn’t bear to make them sad again, so I just told them they were too tiny to see and let them continue caring for the tank (adding new water, food, stirring the water, etc.)… they’ve been doing this for three weeks now (I’m terrible, I know), and this morning, I heard them laughing and talking as they looked at the tank. I walked over and was shocked to see that not only were they alive, they were huge (as in easily visible)!! My theory is that we started them during an unusually warm winter period, the water temp was where it was supposed to be without any sort of heating element, but then we dropped quickly back to cold winter temps which may have caused the water temp to drop and kill the hatched sea monkeys. But maybe not all the eggs hatched during the warm period and stayed in the tank until we got back into warm weather? I guess this is just a warning not to give up on them! Let the tank sit there for a little while even after you think they are dead! UPDATE: It has now been two months and they are STILL alive! We have about 10. Minimal care, maximum entertainment. We have them sitting on a windowsill that doesn’t get direct sunlight (under a porch). We keep a bottle of water next to the tank so it’s always the same temp as the tank and easy to refill to keep the water the right level. We check the level and feed about once a week. Still have plenty of food left. Definitely exceeded my expectations and allowed me some time to get used to the idea of having a dog again :)

We were extremely disapointed. nothing hatched. we set this up christmas day and it is January 25th and nothing is living. just a blank tank.

egg was wet and turned blue. didnt hatch.
