084-Of Wiis And Sea Monkeys

So today the news came out that Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess for the Wii will have Sword Control through the Wiimote. This game went from a I want to read reviews before I buy to a must have. See don't get me wrong I loves me some Zelda, but I ain't the best at 'em. This news however makes this a must play for me. To actually feel like I am link is going to make for one hell of a gaming experience. The most used appliance in my house the last few days has been the DS Lite so I can't really dig on Nintendo's creative approach to gaming, because it's working. I sincerely believe that the Wii is going to be the first console since the Atari 2600 that EVERYONE in the familly will play. Even if it's just casually.

So now I have a Sea Monkey issue. See the monkeys were supposed to hatch on Thursday, but I didn't see anything until Saturday. Well now technicaly you are supposed to feed them on the fifth day which would be today. However, they may have only been alive for three days. To add in further confusion you are supposed to look for thin black lines running through their bodies to see if they have ate. Cause they are shrimp after all and that vein that runs across a shrimps body is the digestive tract. Same principal with sea monkeys. Well sea monkeys feed on algae and what that stuff you feed them is, is a powder that mixes with the water and when the sun hits the tank it makes algae for them to eat. Well the inital packets also make a small amount of algae for the first few days of their lives. Well there are a handful of them feasting on something on the bottom of the tank. While others swim towards the top of the tank feasting on sunlight something sea monkeys like to do. The ones on the bottom seem to have this tell-tale black line(although I could be wrong) while the ones who crave sunlight are still very pale. So the question becomes do I feed them tonight like scheduled? Or do I wait a couple more days. Or do I only put a very small ammount of food in the tank.

Any help?
