They are usually used to feed other fish, but to be honest with you I am really not sure, I have always seen them live and grow, but they should do alright.

like stated, they are used in cleaning tanks, but some fish will eat them.

if you have a good tank, 2-3 is not uncommon in ghost shrimps. my shrimp tank is a 10 gallon with a sponge filter, and filter floss.

well I used to have like 2 or 3 but I was just curious has to how long they live because mine didnt really live that long. Plus there hard to see so maybe when i did water changes and i couldnt find them thats when they probably died but who knows. But thank you.
