i had sea-monkeys 3x years ago when i was a child (bought at a store in ocean terminal). i could say i was being a fool to ask my dad to buy this, being misled by the interesting picture and tricks shown on the package and being "lo dim" by the staff . i still remember this as i had considered this as my worst toy in my life. i coudl still remember the picture of my dad, the staff and me in the store when buying this.
