The BEST Sea-Monkey® kit!
Take this from a 14 year-old's point of view. The Sea-Monkeys® Ghostly Galleon® is one of the BEST sets out there. It includes the Sea-Monkey® tank, a light-up tank cover, which you can turn on and off. It is very useful for locating the Sea-Monkeys® when they are little. There is a color filter, too, to change the color of the light. It also includes the much needed Million Bubbles® air pump. You can easily aerate their water using this piece of equiptment. It also has the new Plasma III®, for bigger and stronger Sea-Monkeys®. It has everything you need to create Instant Life®. Water Purifier, Sea-Monkey® eggs, and Sea-Monkey® Growth Food, with the measuring spoon. Included is an Aqua Leash® to transport your pets from one place to another.
A projector screen comes with the set. You can take the light-up cover off, and shine it behind the tank, to project magnified Sea-Monnkeys® onto the screen. The tank has a little sunken ship glued to the bottom. It glows in the dark. Basically, this kit has pretty much everything you need to raise Sea-Monkeys®. I think the only thing they should've added were Sea Diamonds®, which are little "sea gems" for them to play with. But you can order the Sea Diamonds® from the illustrated Sea-Monkey® handbook. It's a handbook with instructions (be sure to read them!) and a mail-order catalog to buy from.
The instructions are easy to follow. Add the Water Purifier, and wait for 24-36 hours. THIS STEP MUST BE FOLLOWED IN ORDER TO CREATE THE INSTANT LIFE® EFFECT! After waiting for the appropriate time, add the eggs, and KABOOM! Little Sea-Monkeys®! The feeding instructions are clear, they tell you about Sea-Monkey® breeding, and what to do if the water evaporates. The also give some scientific aspects of Sea-Monkeys®, so they are good for a school project/science fair, etc. Everyone should have these fun pets. They ARE better than Triops®! I didn't give this product a full durability rating because this tank can easily be knocked over or spilled.
Sea Monkey Ghostly Gallon
This is without a doubt the coolest Sea Monkey kit out there. It includes a light, a rubber ship, the basic sea monkey packets, plasma 3 color light filters, aqua leash, and the million bubbles airpump. These are really great, people say they get as bigh as 1" but they don't get any bigger than 1/4". And about the ship it is cool, but there is a whole on the bottom, Sea Monkeys go in but they don't come out! All around this is the coolist thing ever.
A very comprehensive Sea Monkey kit
Having been a sea monkey owner for a month now, I have found it a very enjoyable and educational experience. They are fun-to-watch, low maintenance, pets. They make great pets for students, and are more exciting than fish.
The Ghostly Galleon kit is very nice. The tank is very well-constructed. One neat thing is that the sunken galleon is actually hollow, and sea monkeys can swim in and out of it. I also found it very useful that the kit included a Million Bubble Air Pump, which is the recommended tool for aerating the tank. Even though this item can be purchased directly from Transcience by mail-order or online, it was nice not to have to wait for it to arrive separately.
One caveat is that the instructions on the packets and in the official sea monkey handbook are not always up-to-date. I would recommend following the instructions on the official web site ...
