And can you still buy them, if so where? I seen a question mentioning Sea Monkeys and I remember them as a child and I just thought that was the neatest thing, little eggs that hatch in the water and the idea that little monkeys swimming in your water, lol. I just wanted to experience this with my children

aaaw I loved sea monkeys so much.
You can still buy the packs of sea monkeys with the little tank and all but let me suggest a way cheaper, easier, and more fun way.
Go to petco/petsmart and go to the fish food section.
Look for a jar of "Brine Shrimp Eggs". Sea monkeys are Brine Shrimp.These are the exact same thing as sea monkey eggs. Except you get like 1000 eggs in the jar when you get like 20 in a pack of sea monkeys. Plus, they are like 3 dollars cheaper.
With this 3 dollars, buy a small container of fish food flakes and a bottle of water conditioner. Follow the hatching instructions on the jar and feed the sea monkeys the flake food. That way, you will have many many sea monkeys for any time you want!

I got some sea monkeys a few years ago at the Discovery Store. I have also seen them at many similar stores that focus on science and learning for children.

Toys R US still sells sea monkeys. You have to buy the little kit then send away for the sea monkeys.

Yes, always wanted to order some from the back of the comic books but no money. Then when I did have money I was afraid to order them and find out what they really were...wanted to remember them as that cartoon picture of the sea monkey famiy.

They are actually called brine shrimp. Walmart sells them as sea monkeys. But you can buy them at most fish stores.

Sea Monkeys are actually brine shrimp, if I remember correctly.
Anyways, yes, they're still for sale. You can order them online, if you do a search for them.

I loved my Sea Monkies! They never wore the funny hats like in the pictures, but they were fun.
I bought them from out of a Comic Book, Archie Comics.
I also bought some X-Ray glasses, they didnt work like the picture showed they would, but they were fun because the girl down the street did not know they didnt work,I married her later.

Go into Yahoo Shopping and type in Sea Monkeys. :) I had some in college and they really do react to the heat of light outside their little tanks. :)

yes, they are brine shrimp.
any good pet store should carry them in egg form,as they are a very nutritious live fish food, they just will not be sea monkey brand.

I grew them with my class a few months ago. I ordered the kit through a teachers catalog. It was fun. I have seen them in stores. And they do have their own web site. Just type it into Google. Good luck.
