Animagic Aqua Dragons Hatch 'n' Grow Basic Tank | Build an Aquatic Ecosystem, Watch Prehistoric Pets Hatch & Grow Science Kit | Ages 6+

So happy!!!! Sooo many aqua dragons!! Easily 100 babies! (I recommend aerating it more often if you have more hatchlings, do not let go after squeezing until the pipette is completely out of the water! But do not feed more than recommended. DO YOUR RESEARCH, we used natural spring water and made sure it reached room temperature before adding the eggs. And I've been aerating it three times a day roughly. About 15 times each time at least. Definitely worth the money! Easy to do easy to care for. They're growing great! Very good quality product! Had to put the tweezers in the picture to get it to focus all those dots are the babies, were visible on day three very very small. Wish they were bigger but they're not full grown yet. Next to try will be triops!

Got this for my 7-year-old daughter, who wanted a puppy. We made a deal: take care of these Aqua Dragons, feed them, care for them. Then we'll talk. So, she's had multiple generations, and she's forgotten the puppy. The instructions are simple. She's having fun training them.... I don't see the tricks she's claiming, but it keeps her occupied.

These are so cool! I bought one to start off then realized they need to be in a warmer area and the only place in my house that's warmer is the kids rooms so I bought a second one so they can each have a tank in their room. My daughter's room is the warmest and she has a TON (150+) of babies! It took a couple days for them to grow big enough that we could see them. My son's tank is in his room which is probably 5° cooler than my daughter's room, he has several (50-75) babies. They are thriving in the warmer room. I don't have any natural light on them so I'm a little worried. They were easy to set up. My kids love them as they were a Christmas gift. They are worth the money for sure! We have cats and limited space so I didn't want to do a fish tank and these ended up being perfect! 🥰 The ONLY negative is having to use the pipette to put bubbles in it 2 times a day. I'm worried I'll forget after a while

To say the least, I’m disappointed. I got this for my niece for her birthday. Her whole face lit up when she opened this present. All for them not to ever hatch. She followed the instructions completely and nothing. Now she’s going to think all of my gifts are trash because of this incident. YOU ARE CRUSHING CHILDREN'S DREAMS!

I’m overall happy with this, though I must sadly report that my first clutch had died. One star off, because I feel as though the instructions weren’t clear enough, which partially led to the death of my lil guys. I did end up getting a second batch, and they’re doing well, but this one did not fare well. After doing further research, here are some tips for those struggling to get them to survive: 1. “Murky water” is kind of a vague term. I feel as though with the amount of aeration and food and algae floating around, it was difficult for me to decipher what it meant, thus leading to me overfeeding which began the beginning of the end. The best advice is to use common sense. If you only have three survivors, you probably don’t need a full scoop. Even waiting every two days might not have been enough time to feed them a full scoop. My second group has done well being fed small amounts basically every day. I will eventually upgrade to a full scoop and maybe adhere to the original schedule, but their water is noticeably less “murky” than the first time around. 2. Don’t wait 24 hours to feed them. For the second batch, I kind of waited a few hours, but put a small scoop of food in there since they don’t take long to start hatching. They do hatch with a yolk, but the yolk runs out quickly. If you’re asleep when they wake up, they may starve before you get a chance to feed them. In my first run, had a good group of hatchers where 90% met their demise after 24 hours. This was part of the issue, I believe. I strictly stuck to the recommended feeding schedule, and they hatched and looked good, but I think not getting to them in time with food is part of what doomed them. The other half of why they perished may be related to my next point: 3. Aeration. Instructions say “for a few seconds.” I don’t know what that means, so I did like, five pumps for the day. That was certainly not enough. I do about 15 pumps twice a day now. Might be excessive but it doesn’t take a lot out of my day to do either. If they start acting all sluggish, there’s a good chance they need oxygen. Additionally, if there’s a lot of algae in your tank, you need to make absolutely sure there’s enough oxygen for that to flourish, as well as for your dragons. Additional points I can recommend: - They don’t all hatch at once. I didn’t quite understand that point at first. It may be entirely possible that if I had done the above, some would have hatched over time. I unfortunately got hasty and discovered this after I replaced the first group. But they would not have survived if I didn’t start doing the above. In my second group, it’s been about a week so far and babies are still popping out here and there. I think it may take up to a few weeks for all the eggs to hatch. - When you aerate, don’t smash the pipette against the wall. You never know if there was a wee baby you just smooshed. Also don’t forget to rinse your pipettes out, they get pretty gnarly. You also don’t want to introduce something gross that might kill them because you let your pipette get gross. Overall, especially for the price point, I think this is worth it. I wish the instructions were a little more thorough, but also I have a funny brain so I can’t entirely fault the instructions for my mistakes. But if you’re experiencing any bad luck, hopefully the above can help you. They’re a little more intense than what it appears at first glance, but overall it’s just routine maintenance and eyeballing them to make sure it all looks good. Takes me no more than five minutes out of my day, so I suppose they can be educational for small children to teach them some responsibility. I loved them as a kid, and I love them as an adult.

Just as described. They hatch in a couple of days and live for weeks in distilled water. Amazing

Super cute, daughter loves it , definitely buy one for my other daughter. Easy to use, value for money, good quality,

Fun to set up with kids. These little creatures were so fun to watch and gave our family a few months of enjoyment. It does say you can restart the whole process again if you leave the tank out to evaporate, but we didn’t try that.
