Review: Better than Sea-Monkeys! - This is currently the cheapest Aqua Dragons kit with a tank, and gives clearer viewing than most other brine shrimp tanks. I removed the plastic wrap around it as I'm using an aquarium airstone in the tank and found that "salt creep" was getting underneath the wrap. It's easy to remove and improves visibility too. The instructions that come with them usually work well, and are more effective and educational than Sea-Monkey kit instructions. The egg packet also contains a far larger number of viable eggs than Sea-Monkey kits. As with rearing any live animal, I would recommend doing a little research before starting however - watching a couple of short YouTube videos on raising brine shrimp will give you a good head start . They need a bright and warm spot, so you can use a heat mat/mini aquarium heater if your space is too cold, and you can use a small grow light if the space is too dark. An air pump is not needed, but improves conditions and saves having to manually "aerate" (really just mix the water and put food particles in the water for feeding). I'm kinda weirdly obsessed with these types of brine shrimp kits and have tried many different brands and kits over the years - Aqua Dragons are currently the best brand IMO and this kit is the value for money compared to the others at the moment too :).
Review: Amazing Hatch amount - Absolutely fantastic!! I never ever expected this many to hatch. I put them in on the 1st Jan There are many, can't wait to see them become adults

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Do i need to buy anything else along with this?**
A: Yes just a bottles of spring water .you can get one at the shop for 25p. The food will last ages so dont worry about it for now . One sachet goes a very long way . If it is done properly they will hatch and grow properly . However the mate like rabbits 😂 . At some point they will run out of space so It would be better to set it up into a bigger tank straight away ( not too big either) the bigger the tank the more eggs you need. I made the mistake to start it with the tank they give us but once you transfer them , most of them will die . They are extremely fragile creatures but beautiful to look at . If you need more info please message me thanks

**Q: Does the tank light up ?**
A: No the tank does not light up.

**Q: How are we supposed to keep the water warm?**
A: With Aqua Dragons/Sea Monkeys like water be cold but not too cold like wise too much heat.

**Q: How long does a pack of food last?**
A: Lasts ages as you only need a teeny amount (comes with a tiny scoop thingy). Be careful not to over feed them as it kills them!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Hatch amount
*by J***O on 5 January 2026*

Absolutely fantastic!! I never ever expected this many to hatch. I put them in on the 1st Jan There are many, can't wait to see them become adults

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fell down, cracked my plastic aquarium before any Aqua Dragons had ever been added... .
*by M***. on 5 December 2020*

I luckily had put no creatures in there, yet... . But when my Aqua Dragons aquarium fell about 60cm onto a stone floor, it broke down. Also, water can easily run out of it with a lid like that. The colour of the aquarium is lovely. I would still recommend getting a small glass tank or a plastic tank designed as a small animal carrier. This aquarium can get knocked over too easy, I am afraid. When I added a thermometer to my original aquarium, it also tore away the layout with the nice Aqua Dragons design that is not printed onto the aquarium itself but more for marketing reasons and part of the packaging. What's more, it does not reveal what is inside the eggs sachet and the nutrition sachet as of detailed nutritional ingredients used. I would like to give 3.5 stars, also because the set is containing everything needed but a decent aquarium... . Rounding up to 4 stars because I love watching sea creatures and the product is better advertised than Sea Monkeys. Before you buy them, these are LIVING animals. If you go on holidays, get a pet sitter. Don't discriminate against those creatures simply because they are made of less cells than a human being, and certainly don't let them drown in a toilet bowl alive. Thank you! These animals are not a toy but make a nice science project that may keep you busy for many, many months, if you keep on feeding them and raise new generations, you can make this a hobby.
