Great product (recommended)
Absolutely amazing product! The aqua dragons hatched within 48 hours like said in the manual, and they are so exciting and fun too watch!

Adorable and fascinating
So I really didnât have high hopes for this but they really do hatch if you do the steps right. Now, you pour in probably hundreds of thousands of them and we had 4 make it but thatâs how big our family is so that worked and now some are onto the reproductive cycle so weâve got some little babies in there. It is pretty neat to watch. The video, young kids wouldnât know whatâs going on. My kids think theyâre dancing lol But my kids are obsessed with their cute little faces. Would recommend 🙂

Not there most stable of tanks
Our daughter was thrilled to receive her very own sea monkeys for Christmas. They were very slow to hatch, the instructions said 24-48 hours but in actuality it took closer to four days to see any white specks of the sea monkeys. What concerned me most was the tank wasnât very stable and sure enough one week after setting up the tank my eager five year old bumped it and it was knocked over. The poor girl is distraught that her beloved pets have perished.

DO NOT USE TAP WATER!! These are really cool little pets!
I bought this set as a first “pet” for my 6-year-old about a month ago, and I have to admit I’ve enjoyed these little guys just as much as (or maybe even more than) he has! I read tons of tips online so I knew not to use tap water. I think they need to make this very important detail much more obvious in the packaging, put it in caps, something to make it stand out more, because tap water will kill them. You must use plain bottled Spring water, not ionized, carbonated, alkalinated, or anything else nutty. We did that from the get-go and it was exciting watching the tank each day and waiting to see the tiny babies. We have a colony of probably 20-30 dragons, including one attached/mating pair I just noticed (I haven’t quite figured out how to explain that one to my son: “Well sweetie, when two aqua dragons love each other very much..” Haha, I’ll figure something out ;)As cool as these things are, I had to deduct a star for the tippability (is that a word? Sure, now it is) of the tank. Seriously, it’s a set made for children who as a rule tend to be clumsy little humans, you’d think it would have a sturdier base?? The base is flimsy and quite narrow, and my son managed to tip it over in his excitement and it cracked, as well as released hundreds of little larvae onto the wood floor (cue massive frenzied rescue mission using the pipette). Unfortunately some of them didn’t make it. Luckily the tank still holds water so we’re still using it. The light to view the creatures is very cool, but it’s going to be impossible to change the batteries in the base without transferring the colony to another container, so we just try to limit use of the light. Plus, it’s very easy to inadvertently tip over the tank when you press the button. For those 2 reasons, I just couldn’t give 5 stars. But this set has still been a ton of fun. I do always keep a lamp on next to them (I read that promotes well-being) and I don’t let the house get below about 65 degrees. Plus I aerate the tank 2 times daily and they have done swimmingly. Get them, it’ll be fun! And way less work than a snake, which is what my kid initially wanted!

Easy to setup! Lots of live aqua dragons!
Iâm very satisfied with this aqua dragons kit. It was easy to setup. I used bottled spring water in my tank and got great results. 24 hours after mixing in the packet, I could see so many tiny aqua dragons moving in the water.I strongly recommend aerating your tank at least once daily for a couple of minutes each time. Do this by gently squeezing bubbles into the water using the plastic pipette that comes in the kit.I didnât add anything that didnât come with the kit to avoid contaminating the water with chemicals that could harm the aqua dragons. No sand, pebbles, rocks, corals or other decorations. Besides, there wasnât really enough room available in the tiny tank.Best practice would also include washing your hands prior to handling the plastic pipette or feeding spoon. And itâs better not to touch the water with fingers.After many months of having a bunch of thriving aqua dragons, it finally came down to having one left. And eventually I didnât see anything in my tank.Iâm glad I didnât dump the contents of my seemingly aqua dragon-less tank immediately. I decided to keep using the pipette to aerate the water in the tank daily. And to my surprise, two weeks later I noticed a young aqua dragon swimming around. I remembered how a pregnant adult had died and it probably hatched from one of her eggs. (The more you read about brine shrimp, youâll learn how fascinating these little creatures are.)I have since added some brine shrimp eggs to my aqua dragons tank to repopulate it & so my lone aqua dragon wouldnât need to be alone. I bought the brine shrimp eggs separately.This is a great kit for kids & adults. Itâs a good way to learn about responsibility and patience. And although not necessary, doing some research by googling brine shrimp can be beneficial to both humans and aqua dragons.If youâve tried raising the sea monkeys brand brine shrimp with less than satisfactory results, this aqua dragons kit will likely be better than your expectations.If youâre on the fence between sea monkeys & aqua dragons, I recommend this product.

Actually surprise it worked. Although it are creepy as hell as they swim around. Low maintenance a little pricey but kid likes it.

Love these little critters! I had a lot of success with my aqua dragons ..in fact I think I have waaay more than the tank should be able to support. They keep laying more eggs and more and more sea dragons are born every week! I do however think every time I use the bubble think to add air a few sea dragons die every time itâs actually sad. But overall very satisfied!

Fun to watch the egg hatch and get bigger. It has now been a month and the little creatures are quite big and cool to watch. Not sure if they’ll last long or reproduce but it’s a fun experiment. I’m dissapointed in the container. Made of cheap plastic. Water got in between the plastic film and the container when filling it up so it is now blurry. The LED lights stopped working after 3 days and it’s impossible to try to fix as it’s at the bottom of the container.
