6-Month-Old Sea-Monkeys!

Yes, it's been half a year already since my "amazing live Sea-Monkeys" hatched as small dots in the aquarium - and they're still alive!



The now fully grown up SeaMonkeys are about 1 centimeter in length and love to swim around in their aquarium, often keeping either at the top where they find most of the light during the day (and fresh food every few days), or at the bottom, where algae accumulate that they like to eat and they fan those up their bodies with their gill/legs structures so they reach their "mouth".
Sometimes I can watch them mating (a male and female stick together quite a long time), and females are easy to recognize due to the huge egg sac they're carrying.

They quite funny little animals and don't require too much of work, just feeding them once a week and airing the water every few weeks by pouring the water, including the Sea-Monkeys themselves out of the tank and back into it a few times. Oh, and refilling water that evaporates. But that's about all, so even something I can manage to do

So, happy 6-month-birthday to my Sea-Monkeys, I hope you'll survive even longer!

And now, back to SeaMonkey software work...
