Question HOw long?

How big do ghost shrimp get at record and how long do they live im curious if they live long then they could be like my plastic plant with flowers and all. As long as i got fish around to leave a mess.

my oldest was almost a year before eaten. they are pretty low on the food chain, so they arent meant to live for very long.

Ghost shrimp live about 1 to 1 1/2 years. If allowed to live that is. Most unfortunately get eaten.
