Which would tempt you most when you see them for sale...Sea Monkeys or Artemia salina × nyos, which is the proper name of the type of brine shrimp sold as Sea Monkeys?
When sold in the UK during the 1970s, they were called Artful Arties and in the USA were originally called Instant Life - proof that the person responsible for first marketing them, one Harold von Braunhut, felt that they'd sell far better if given a catchier, cuter name. He decided on Sea Monkeys because the shrimps apparently exhibit playful, monkey-like behaviour. Incidentally, brine shrimp are also sold in a more "scientific" form, in packaging designed to make the whole process of raising them look like a serious experiment instead of in packaging featuring the cartoonish images associated with Sea Monkeys. In this form, they are sold as Brine Shrimps.

What can live with sea monkeys and not eat them?
Sea Monkeys cannot live with fish. Guppies MAY be a possibility, but I doubt that you will have Sea Monkeys when you go back to see your aquarium. Also, Sea Monkeys are extremely small. And they cannot live in anything larger than a gallon (except when they are in a enormously-sized colony). Any fish WILL think of Sea Monkeys as food. Also, only salt-water fish are physically able to inhabit their tank in the first place. Snails, however, can live with Sea Monkeys. A company known as Little Aussie Products sells a product similar to Sea Monkeys called "Itsy Bitsy Sea Dragons." They also sell "tank mates" for Sea Monkeys/Dragons: Snails. They have multiple species of snails, including: Teeny Weeny Winkles, Coco Snails and Blueberries. Sea Bubbles are another small species which can live with Sea Dragons/Monkeys. They are also sold by Little Aussie Products, and are much smaller than even Sea Dragons/Monkeys. I hope this helps!
