Three-eyed freaks of nature thrill you with wonders that leave you breathless. You’ll never tire watching these adorable pets swim. They’re eager to please as they obey your commands. They’re very adventurous and enjoy swimming against the current. Get your Super Sea-Monkey Kit today!

The caricatures in this ad may be deceiving and perhaps it’s why so many people buy in on the whole Sea-Monkey fad. Marketing them as an instant pet, even if they’re just a microscopic crustacean that’s part of the “artemia salina” family, was a brilliant idea. That and calling them Sea Monkeys because of their funny tails and playful monkey like behaviour. I just don’t see how the cute illustrations even come close to depicting the actual multi-legged, alien-esque looking creatures.

Watch your Sea-Monkeys grow right in front of your eyes! (Water not included.)
