When I was a schoolchild, I had parents buy these.
Do you know these?

Hehe, funnily enough as a child I had both of those at some stage.

I don't know which one was more amusing though.

The Sea monkeys never lasted longer that about 2 generations, and I could never find the right ants!

Wow! You know each individual triop by name like that? I don't think I could tell the difference between each one. I'd get 'em mixed up.

hehe..

Anyway,
I did not know that Triops were commercialized until now.

In Japan, Triops are called "Kabuto- Ebi"(Kabuto means shell,Eebi means shrimp in Japanese)
Triops live in the paddy fields.
they are hardly seen now .Since fresh water is dirty...

We used to have sea monkeys when I was a kid ... but I can't remember having an ant farm. I remember watching the sea monkeys grow... but I don't remember whatever happened to them. I guess they died.

Switch your encoding to Japanese (auto-select) and you'll be able to read it perfectly. I'm not sure why atusiya's writing came out like that though, as he didn't post Japanese characters, they are english characters. Must be the forums.

Abe Babe...

Edit: I remembered that most people probably don't have Japanese text support installed on their computers. I do, as I'm always visiting Japanese websites for FF stuff. Here is what he posted:

"Why do you have to quote others when you can quote yourself?" (Quote by me)
Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God.
You see things, and you say 'why'. But i dream things that never were and i say 'why not'.
