Review: Don't Give Up - I bought these in August to make a custom sea monkey tank. My tank is 0.5 gallons, but ended up being a bit less than that once I filled it with water. The packets are good for 10 oz to 12 oz of water, so I used 5 packages for my tank. I put all of the packets in my tank following the instructions carefully, saw a couple of baby sea monkeys and then they died and nothing else happened. The tank had also turned quite green after adding the egg packets. I was bummed, but thought I'd leave the tank to see what happened. Saw one more hatch a while later, it died, so I left it again. Fast forward to early November when my tank was over half evaporated and I was waiting for it to fully evaporate so I could try refilling it to trigger a second hatching (as I saw mentioned online). Looked in and to my surprise there were two almost adult sea monkeys in there with a few more babies besides! I was in a bit of a conundrum as the tank was now over half evaporated, and I was planning on pulling out the gravel on the bottom as I read after the fact that they can get trapped in that and die. I ended up pulling out all of the gravel even with them in there, surprisingly they made it through fine and then I started topping up the water incrementally so as not to change it too quickly on them. They're doing fantastic now, and there are loads of babies coming along! I'm so thrilled. So don't give up if your tank doesn't do anything right away. I didn't feed my tank at all since first starting it, though I was aerating periodically. I still haven't fed my tank actually, because the water is still cloudy as there was so much food in there from the start. I can't comment on the more recent reviews of bad packets, mine came in perfect condition and were shipped with Canada Post with no issues.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: How many eggs are in a packet?**
A: It doesn’t say ? But nothing happened with my kit either ? Not Amazons fault ? It’s the manufacture’s fault.

**Q: What can you use instead of the water purifier packet?**
A: Purified water.

**Q: It’s beeb about 5 days and we only have two sea monkeys. Do some eggs take longer?**
A: Yes actually, if your sea monkeys all die off then you can let all the water evaporate then refill it with bottled purified water and the eggs that didn't hatch the first go round will hatch then.

**Q: I'm making a self sustainable ecosystem. Can I put these in it?**
A: I wouldn’t recommend
