Once upon a time in the last century, there was an inventor, Harold von Braunhut, who came across a unique species of tiny creatures called Artemia salina. They had adapted to the saltiest water they could find on the planet—water so salty no larger creature would dare to live there. They were true miracles of nature who could exist in suspended animation inside their tiny eggs for a long time. These delicate little creatures were carefully nurtured and crossbred until a miraculous new hybrid was born: Artemia NYOS!—The Amazing Live Sea-Monkeys!

These powerful new offspring were like Super Artemia! Their microscopic eggs could thrive for years asleep inside the magical instant-life crystals created just for them. When a child or family was ready to awaken their Sea-Monkeys, all they had to do was add water to create the perfect formulated environment for the eggs to hatch and bring these special creatures to life! Sea-Monkeys loved to tussle and play, and could even do tricks with the proper care and training. Sea-Monkeys were truly amazing...That’s why they are still Super Stars today!
