@Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party You’ve reignited my childhood enthusiasm for them. Never had a tank myself but always thought they were cool. Wonder if my kids would be into it.

What’s your setup? I can see some kind of air pump?

    @sam you don't need the air pump. But it's a nice extra. If you have a cold house you can use a heater too. But they are designed to work at room temperature with no extras.
    You can have seamonkeys after 2 days.

      @sam and the air pump was £2 from temu so it's not a big expense of you want one.
      The kit including tank, water salts, eggs and food, is only about £12

        @Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party Thanks. Good to know you have positive results using the normal kit and a ludicrously cheap pump. If I get one I would probably get some kind of pump as I’m sure without anything they won’t live particularly long.

          @Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party Alright I’ve gone off brand and got a nice looking Aqua Dragons set. Then gone on a bit of an Ali Express spree and bought an air pump, pH testing strips, a salinity meter, a heater and some glow in the dark pebbles. 😆 It’s for the children…we need the bits for the science…

            @sam yes! Let me know how you get on. I'm now up to three tanks and I'm thinking about a goldfish bowl I have that I might be able to change to a Seamonkey enclosure. I live near the beach and someone I know said you can put seaweed in the tanks for them to eat and play in as well so I'm tempted to try that

              @Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party @sam I’m currently on holiday in Devon, maybe I should try and bring some back. 😁
