@animeirl Yeah that's a good while for something a couple centimeters long, lmao.

@oyasumi most similarly sized (and even somewhat larger) live like 2 years. converted to human years it'd be like living to 800

@animeirl I'm scared of getting a large bird because of the commitment and you've committed 20 years to shrimp. ( that blue one would look amazing in an aquascape )

@oyasumi the long-lived ones are insanely low maintenance otherwise id probably not have done it lol. only need to be fed once a week or so and water changed twice a year

@animeirl That makes a lot more sense. The birds I'm interested in are like demon toddlers that don't grow up.
