instead of originating in the ocean, Artemia are found in salt lakes and salt evaporation flats. A relative also of Lobsters, Crabs, Fairy Shrimp and other crustaceans. Sea-Monkeys® too belong in this category, since they are a variety of Artemia. The name scientists have given this amazing rare process is “cryptobiosis” which means “hidden life.” Among the types of life on Earth that are cryptobiotic in early stages of development are the seeds of higher plants (wheat grains from the tombs of the ancient Egyptian Kings have sprouted after being sealed in urns for more than 2,000 years), the larvae of certain insects, and the thick-shelled eggs of some crustaceans such as Daphnia, Seed Shrimps (Ostracoda) and Brine Shrimp (Artemia salina). With the act of giving your Sea-Monkeys® life, you join in the immensely rewarding experience of fellow hobbyists throughout the world! As a creator of Sea-Monkeys®, you share with them, the knowledge that through your willingness to explore the unknown, you have stepped across the threshold of one of the strange worlds of tomorrow’s science … TODAY!Ī true MIRACLE of nature, Sea-Monkeys® actually exist in SUSPENDED ANIMATION! While inside their tiny eggs, yet unborn, they burn the “spark of life” for many YEARS!
