The Great Sea-Monkey Project

Still Growing

The Sea-Monkeys are six days old now, and Very Very Big! Well, perhaps not that big - but I can see them from 10 feet away without trying, and that's a very big difference from squinting into the tank through a magnifying glass from two inches away only a few days ago.

Their first feeding was supposed to be yesterday, but when I shine a flashlight behind them I can see that their digestive tracts are full, so I don't know whether to feed them or not - any suggestions? I've also seen some monkeys with trails of poop behind them. ;)

I thought I saw legs on the bigger ones yesterday, and today I'm sure - almost all, except the two or three runts, have legs now! They are looking more and more like adults. It's still way too early to sex them yet, and most of them will probably die off, but I hope I get a good mix of males and females.
