Seamonkey water purifier substitute full#

My Sea Medic has yet to arrive. My friend Joe convinced me to go the fish pet store and ask if they knew about an fish equivalent of Sea Medic. This morning I looked in the tank and two were dead. You have to be careful to not squish them when you are squirting them out also, I think some sea monkeys died from the trauma of being moved in it.Īnyways, there were 16 sea monkeys at the time of the move. It is tricky for moving sea monkeys though. This syringe was originally intended for guinea pig medicine. I don’t have an aqua leash, so I used an oral syringe to move my sea monkeys. You obviously want to take the sea monkeys out first. You just put the water through a coffee filter.

The tank was full of black dots and white fuzz. Yesterday, I filtered the water in the American tank. I have looked through all the Harvey and Golden Key comics, but I have yet to look through super hero comics.

That is so exciting it warrants double emphasis! This ad also has an amusing offer: “ NOTE: Sea-Monkeys are so EASY to keep alive, you even get a REAL Sea Monkey Life-Insurance Policy“. This one has a disclaimer that says “Caricatures shown not intended to depict hybridized brine shimp“. It’s the vertical version of the picture in the 1971 ad. Can you imagine getting a dead dog or monkey in the mail? I think that would traumatize someone for life. “Best of all, “Crazy Crabs” have a life-span of up to 70 YEARS! Give it water, any kind of food (even cookies), and with good care you can keep one alive for the rest of your life!” The ad also totes “Guaranteed LIVE Delivery!” I’ve seen a lot of old ads for live animals, and it horrifies me. “A truly INTELLIGENT pet, give it a name such as L’il Caesar, Leapin’ Linda, Happy Henry, Sandy Claws, Tippytoes, Sexy Snooky, Merry Mimi, Tiny Tim, etc., and see how well it responds when you call it!” Not very well, I imagine. The ad is from 1977, and easy the most amusing of the lot. This isn’t for Sea-Monkeys, but this was sold by Transcience Corp. “You’ll GASP WITH AMAZEMENT when you see THE ACTUAL BIRTH of DOZENS of ADORABLE NEW SUPER SEA-MONKEYS (Artemia)!” Also, there is a bit of text on the bottom that says “Unicorn House Dept 80A”. Here’s an 1975 ad for SUPER Sea-Monkeys! This ad makes ample use of BOLD! Also, the price rose. “Caricatures not intended to depict Artemia salina.” This is the earliest ad I have with a disclaimer. ” They LIVE up to 100 YEARS in incredible TIME-CAPSULE CRYSTALS, yet come ALIVE in only ONE SECOND while you and your friends watch in utter amazement! And, they give as much FUN as a cage of friendly JUNGLE MONKEYS!” This ad from 1970 is an excellent exercise in capitalization. … Watch them swim singly or in ever-changing graceful formations, creating a live sea-circus.” The loser gets caught by his tail and is spun in a dizzy circle. Any minute of the day or night, you’ll see them chase one another in a playful game of tag. Watch the comic antics of these fantastic underwater buffoons that are really alive. I really like the circus imagery: “In only five minutes you will actually hatch a whole tumbling, playful, happy troupe of Sea-Monkeys that are even more fun than a zoo full of chattering, howling, jungle monkeys! World’s most amazing new pet, children and adults alike with laugh and thrill with wonderful excitement. They are mostly from Richie Rich comics from the late 60s and 70s. I got them from a vintage book and comic store. I will be getting the supplies for one of the half gallons and the quarter gallon this Saturday! I am going to have (assuming the American tank does not die off soon) three half gallon tanks and one quarter gallon tank. I also made back drops for each of my tanks. I mixed in some of the deadly blue gravel and it looks very pretty. That stuff is just impossible to get rid of without Sea Medic, which still hasn’t come. I don’t know how long it will last it’s full of white fuzzy bacteria stuff.
