The Amazing Live Sea - Monkeys Ocean Zoo

This Sea-Monkeys kit is fun and an easy introduction to science and biology. The Sea-Monkeys are guaranteed to live a full two years. Included in the kit is the time-tested Ocean Zooquarium with Aero-Vent lid, water purifier, instant live eggs, Sea-Monkeys growth food, calibrated growth food measuring spoon, easy-to-follow instructions, 2 year growth gaurantee, and a Sea-Monkeys life insurance policy. All units are securely shrink-wrapped for shipping. Sea-MonkeysÆ are a true miracle of nature. They exist in suspended animation inside their tiny eggs for many years. The instant-life crystals, in which the eggs are enclosed, preserve their viability and help to extend still further their un-hatched life span! Sea-Monkeys are real Time-Travelers asleep in biological time capsules for their strange journey into the future!Scientists call this amazing rare process "cryptobiosis" which means, "hidden life". Among the types of life on Earth that are cryptobiotic in early stages of development are the seeds of higher plants (wheat grains from the tombs of the ancient Egyptian Kings have sprouted after being sealed in urns for more than 2,000 years), the larvae of certain insects, and the thick-shelled eggs of some crustaceans such as Daphnia, seed Shrimps (Ostracods) and Brine Shrimp (Artemia salina). Sea-Monkeys too belong in this category, since they are a variety of Artemia. A relative of Lobsters, Crabs, Fairy Shrimp and other crustaceans, instead of originating in the ocean, Artemia are found in salt lakes and salt evaporation flats. The waters of these areas are often so salty that Artemia may be the only non-microscopic animal inhabiting them.Ages 6+
