ecosphere from Viva Terra

I guess I'm just recently obsessed with living things trapped in jars.


"An entire self-sustaining ecosystem thrives within this attractive hand-blown glass sphere: Plants, live shrimp, algae, and microorganisms. It requires only indirect light and moderate temperatures, and offers hours of fascinating viewing. Each EcoSphere comes with a handbook that explains how it works and how to care for it."


PS: the terrariums are growing like crazy.

    Reeves has one of those - it's like a lil crystal ball with a shrimp and algae inside. He stole it from "Fuck Corey's" house a few summers back. Quite the scandal!

    also what happens if one of the shrimpys dies from like old age or whatever, do you just have to watch it decompose for months trapped in that thing?

    it says it lasts 2 - 3 years. i think the "shrimp" are really more like sea monkeys. also, shrimp are scavengers (hallo) so they'd probably just eat it. CIRCLE OF LIFE (trapped in a jar).
