    1.) Agree, John. This is a beautiful tank and it looks especially fantastic with the underwater vegetation growing. The translucent green color is particularly nice. 2.) I encourage anyone who would like to see more tank styles and tank decorations to VOICE YOUR OPINION on the contact page of the sea-monkeys website. PLEASE. 3.) That picture of me is what I “USED” to look like — decades ago. Ha! It was taken about the time I was doing contract work for ExploraToy around the turn of the century. (You do the math.) 4.) It’s always a joy to see what John has in store for us in his videos. They never disappoint. The amount of time and attention he gives to them is truly amazing. And finally … 5.) I can’t imagine what 10-year-old-John and 10-year-old-me would would have been up to had we grown up together. One things for certain, it would have been Sea-Monkey related. THANK YOU, JOHN!
  • Insane how GOOD it looks when glowing in the dark with all the green algae, extremely aesthetic visuals
  • @TopazFire15
    4:39 the camel toe comment made me shoot out of bed laughing, that was so unexpected 😂
  • @loriki8766
    I love all the science you do with the sea monkey tanks. Your videos would be an asset to schools and museums. I often see sea monkey tanks in the gift shop at our local science museum but never any exhibits with them.
  • @robyn6521
    Wow, I was surprised at how well the ship glowed in the dark with all the algae covering it. That was really beautiful
  • @sierram9573
    It’s even better when it lives up to your expectations ❤ it was fun hearing you talk about a tank you’re even more passionate about than usual
  • @pazu9190
    You should make a video going over your collection of sea monkey tanks as well as your live colonies of sea monkey tanks. I would love to see how many of your tanks might still have living sea monkeys after all these videos.
  • @CrxyLinda
    That's so funny that there is a sunken ship container. My 10 gallon tank has a big sunken ship in the middle with an air pump in the middle. This tank looks so sick with the hair algae growing on it. Man I love your videos, helps me take care of my smokies with interesting facts added in ^_^ Can't wait for the next one~ <3

    Finally. We get to see the mulm under the microscope! Journey to the Picocosmos!
  • @fengengao
    Absolutely gorgeous with the way the algae glows as well. Congratulations on your holy grail tank!
  • @jiangli3520
    I saw you uploaded right as I was convincing myself to go for my run, so now after it I'm treating myself 🎉
  • Now for replacing the little battery powered pocket light with a fully powered blacklight LED strip and supercharge the sucker.
  • @KillerCaitie
    1) Congrats on getting your holy grail! 2) I didn't expect to hear the sentence "The male sea monkeys have impressive camel toes" today. 3) The ship looks FANTASTIC covered in all the algae & seaweed! This is certainly my new favourite, even more than the circus one!
  • @NoOne71169
    Thanks for this review! I’ve been eyeing up this kit for a while since I think it’s the coolest looking kit. Might have to pull the trigger now 😂
  • @dariusq8894
    I actually picked this set up from Toys R Us some years back just before Sea Monkeys were taken off the market. The combination of Submarine Searchlight + GITD pirate ship really makes this model aquarium pop.
  • @dizzydragon
    The ship with the Algae growing on it looks awesome!
  • Cool plant kit for them and cool to see the classic Figurines standing nearby. Thanks!
  • omg i had this tank and i loved it so much but all my sea monkeys died and i threw the tank away and now i google and see how rare it is, dammnit!!!
  • @Chaddy14
    Woah I Had This Exact Same Kit As A Kid 😭❤️ Thanks For The Nostalgia Trip Here ❤️😭😭
  • So cool seeing your videos takes me back to that little kid excited to order my ea monkeys in the late 70s when you sent in the little paper work to get them and eagerly awaiting for them in the mail lol then they were sold at a novelty store called Spencer's gifts in the US also another fun chain woolworths. But unbenounced to me they didn't look like the picture and my mother explains that they weren't actual monkeys lol such disappointment for a 6 year old lol 😆 now I think they're the coolest thing can you do another video on the largest growing ones or maybe try out the triops kits those are very interesting thank you 😊
