Just wanted to share a video of my immortal cherry shrimp that apparently just came back from the dead.
This guy hitchhiked on a plant three years ago, survived being rinsed in the sink above a garbage disposal, fell on the kitchen floor, and got pitched into this barely cycled, two–gallon jar when I first got him.
I legit have not seen him for a year and a half and thought he was dead until this morning when I topped off this jar, whose water I never change btw, and then 5 min later, I see him running around. How is he still alive???

If it’s amano (hard to see from video), they can live 5-10+ years.
In colder temps neos can go 2-3
Eat your heart out, water bears!
Life, uh, finds a way.
