To clean, or not to clean?:

As your Sea-Monkeys age, sediment will begin to gather in the bottom of your tank -- a combination of food, algae, waste and un-hatched eggs. This is a natural part of the process and is not necessarily harmful to your pets. In fact, the Sea-Monkeys seem to enjoy routing around the murky basin. I choose not to clean my tanks -- rather let the process in their ecosystem continue naturally.

If you are neat by nature and demand a tidy bowl, a Sea-Monkey Aqua-Leash makes a great aquatic vacuum cleaner. It has also been reported that pouring the water through a household coffee filter is an effective way of removing the debris. Keep in mind this will also filter out any dormant eggs that reside in the murk and muck.

When an adult Sea-Monkey passes on, their blackened carcass will sink to the bottom of the Ocean-Zoo floor. These deceased Sea-Monkeys should be removed. An Aqua-Leash is a handy utensil for this task as well. In a pinch, a new straw or sterile eye dropper might also serve the purpose.
