Self Sustaining Ecosphere

This self sustaining ecosphere is like owning your very own tiny world.

The ecosphere is a balance of water, air, and life. The technology for this self sustaining ecosphere was developed by NASA scientists in an attempt to study our own planet’s biosphere.

What is an EcoSphere?

The EcoSphere is a completely closed, balanced, glass ecosystem. Inside each EcoSphere are shrimp, algae, and microorganisms in salt water. Because the EcoSphere contains everything it needs to thrive, you never have to feed the life within, or change the water. All that is needed is a comfortable room temperature (between 65 and 80 F) and a source of light.

Shrimp in the EcoSphere

The EcoSphere contains active marine shrimp that feed on the algae inside the EcoSphere. Each model of EcoSphere contains a certain number of shrimp based on the interior volume.
