They are certainly the same thing, just from different wild strains. Different strains have different coloration.

they're not the same thing.
SERIOUSLY. go read the sea monkey page.
A person in a pet store insisted that Sea-Monkeys are just brine shrimp? The person in the pet store should visit this website.
How are Sea-Monkeys different from brine shrimp? There are several differences. Sea-Monkeys grow much larger (up to .5" long) and live longer than ordinary brine shrimp. They are also a lot more active and can be taught to perform "tricks", unlike ordinary brine shrimp.

Are they Brine Shrimp?
Sea-Monkeys® are a unique species of brine shrimp, known by the scientific name of Artemia NYOS. We not only unlocked the most elusive secrets of their life cycle, we created new formulas to keep them alive under conditions found in the average home—an accomplishment never before achieved! Finally, after years of crossbreeding, we developed a hybrid. These amazing new hybrids grow larger and live longer than any "natural" variety of brine shrimp. Resulting from the most exquisitely sophisticated “aquaculture technology”, by true pioneers in this science, only the utmost resources of a leading marine biological research center working for a span of many years has made this project a complete success.
