These brackish water pools are considered extreme living environments, where the water undergo (gradual) wide swings in salinity, temperature and exposure to UV radiations from the sun. The opae ula shrimp have adapted to survive in this harsh environment. As we any type of pet, the human factor is also involved. Survival of this shrimp species is dependent, to some extend, upon the care and observation of its keeper. The twenty year life span claim of this shrimp species is anecdotal. Ironically, the long survival claim was made by someone who kept these shrimp in a confined artificial environment. Others claimed a much lesser life span, up to several years. We don't know of any true scientific study that claims these shrimp live for 20 years or more. Would be kind of difficult to tag this tiny crustacean and follow it for 20 years, especially when these shrimp, in their natural environment, are at the bottom of the food chain. Our five Shrimp Bubbles are still going well for over two years now. Out of 15 shrimp we lost ONE. **Q: Would this work in an office/ cubical with just florecent light?** A: Yes, ceiling florescent light will work. **Q: Can I plop a marimo (moss ball) in it, without it affecting the shrimp and the moss ball itself?** A: We are glad you asked. The answer to your question is: No, absolutely not. The marimo "moss" ball is a freshwater algae species and the Shrimp Bubble ecosystem is brackish (salty) water. The marimo algae ball will disintegrate and pollute the water. NEVER put/add anything inside the Shrimp Bubble; snails, small fish, plants, Marimo moss ball, algae, rocks, toys, etc. **Q: I would love to get this, my only concern is in my home if it's in the indirect light, how much light is enough or not enough? Thanks so much!** A: Hi, Nicole. You observe the rate of the live green algae development inside the Shrimp Bubble. If they grow too fast, it means that the ecosystem may receive too much light. If their development is rather slow and can not keep up with the shrimp algae consumption, it means that the ecosystems may need more light, so you should move it to a different location. However, never go directly from one extreme to another. Rapid changes to the ecosystem equilibrium may negatively affect the shrimp. ## Frequently Bought Together - Shrimp Bubble Self-Sustaining Ecosystem - Natural.
