Welcome to the Jurassic world of Aqua Dragons. Ideal for kids and a perfect “pet” which doesn’t need toilet training, Aqua Dragons are real live pre-historic aquatic creatures that you can hatch and grow at home. Their scientific name is Artemia Salinas, and they have been living in the sea and salty lakes for millions of years; right back to the time when dinosaurs roamed the Earth!
From the crustacea family, Aqua Dragons look like tiny three eyed, long tailed, hairy headed dragons that grow up to 2cm long. Their eggs have an amazing capacity called cryptobiosis which means they can dry out and stay alive only to hatch many years later. Tests have found that eggs kept in air sealed containers for up to 20 years still hatched when they were returned to water.
The full on feature kit not only allows you to hatch and grow Aqua Dragons with the eggs, food and feeding sppon included, it will have pride of place in any kid's bedroom. Just add water and they miraculously hatch in just 2-3 days and can grow to up to 2cm long. Initially the hatchlings will be microscopic but within 5-7 days you should be able to see them. They are fascinating to watch as they swim and play graciously in their aquatic underwater world. Includes a LED illuminated plastic cracked-egg shaped tank habitat with a baby dinosaur sleeping in the base. Push the button and the dinosaur blows air through the tank via a bubble pum[p. The LED base lights up the tank at night. The set ALSO includes Aqua Dragon stickers, a colour poster, ownership certificate and instruction booklet.The perfect first pet and a great way of teaching youngsters how to care for living things.
