Feeding is very important! But you don't have to feed for the first 3 days, since the sea monkeys still have some yolk attached. Then use liquid algae (micro algae) until day 10. Then you can feed with regular algae powder since the sea monkeys can now also eat bigger particles. The water gets a very light-green/dimmish color after putting tiny amounts of Liquicell/algae powder into it. Do not feed too much! About once a week is absolutely sufficient. Add some Liquicell/algae powder again only when the water is very clear again! If the water gets dull, you feed too much! Stop feeding and replace some water!

Take a piece of lettuce and put it in a mayonnaise jar with a little bit of water, set this on the back porch in the sun for a couple of days, and bingo you have sea monkey food. This is an inforenca (spelled wrong LOL) culture and all you have to do is use an eyedropper to put a couple of drops of that water in with your sea monkeys. Instant buffet.
In the meantime, you can use a little bit of hard boiled egg yolk. Put a little bit very little bit in the water and let it dissolve and they should be perfectly happy.
Good luck.

Sea monkeys can be kept alive with flour dissolved in water added to the tank (or jar or whatever). If they were babies, you would want the water to be fairly cloudy with food, if they're adults, only very slightly cloudy. You can also feed them soy powder, cooked egg yolk, or yeast. They also have food that you can get at a petstore, but if the flour and other options work, I would go with them as it will probably be cheaper! See the link below for more information!

You know that sea monkeys are actually Brine Shrimp? and the person that said to put lettuce in a mayo jar is correct.
