So its like your own world that you can rule over with an iron fist?
sounds pretty cool i guess, you could be all like "FINE IF YOU WILL NOT BUILD ZE FACTORIES I WILL NOT PUT YOU IN LIGHT FOR 2 DAYS"
But i would think the shrimps would grow too big after a while and have to eat eachother to stay alive then there would just be one really fat shrimp floating in a load of plants which would not be very cool.

Those things are a load. My brother bought one for like 60 dollars and even teh smallest shake will completely destroy it, and then you have to pay 30 more for it to be "recharged."

Because the ecosphere is a self-sustaining ecosystem, you never have to feed the life within. Simply provide your EcoSphere with a source of indirect natural or artificial light...
Self-sustaining...except for the required external source of energy.
What a load.

Sunlight. The shrimp things feed off the algae that grows in it.

I don't have enough tacky overly-expensive furnature for that thing to go well with. I'd first need at least a single-tone blue leather couch, a few glass sculptures sparsely placed on an enormous glass book case, and receeded floor lights; then I'll be just yuppie enough to own an eco-sphere.

Don't be a douchebag. You know the thought of ruling over tiny shrimp encased in a glass orb gets you all wet with excitement.
I want an Ecosphere. I'll keep it here at work with me and the power of the flourescent lights will keep the shrimp alive until I decide they must perish. For in my cube, I AM A GOD AMONG SHRIMP! >:

Well I'm sure no-one will buy you it. Sorry.

I don't think flourescent lights will work that well.
But hey, when you get tired of your eco-system, you can twirl the ball really quickly and cause a spinning vortex of death.

Be careful not to play any music, look at them too hard, or breathe near your Ecosphere. It will shatter.

They are only good for 2 years on average :(
Get a puppy instead. At least you can pet it and take it for walks.
PS - Wanting to shake it and destroy all the living creatures inside? Now you know how God feels. I'd laugh if your stupid shrimp colony decided to all vote republican. Then you'd DEFINATELY know how God feels.

I'd get one but I usually have no sunlight in my room. I sleep all day and the shades are shut. I'd be a crappy god. :( A GOD OF DARKNESS!

The EcoSphere is the result of technology developed by scientists at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory.
Also, just how much pleasure can you get out of lording over a dozen or so creatures the size of a pinhead? Well, besides being able to play baseball with their entire universe.

You know the thought of ruling over tiny shrimp encased in a glass orb gets you all wet with excitement.Maybe if it were in an oversized lightbulb my panties would get a little moist. But I might have just changed my mind because I just saw the large one's for sale downtown for $30.

$30?? Are you serious? What place is selling them for that cheap? Then I could rule MANY shrimp :o

It's cool, but wouldn't it already break and the shrimp die while it's getting delivered? Or do you activate it somehow.. like a tamagotchi :)

DO NOT shake it, drop it, or otherwise treat EcoSphere roughly - it is someone's home.
DO NOT overexpose your EcoSphere to light.
HEY! I SAID DO NOT shake your EcoSphere!
DO NOT lube your EcoSphere with sexual jelly and insert EcoSphere in your buttox.
DO NOT cry to EcoSphere about how you have no friends and this world of micro organisms is the only thing to touch your penis in the past 3 years.
DO NOT show EcoSphere pictures of your Jewish internet friends.
DO NOT allow EcoSphere to roll in to the kitchen for a late-night snack.
DO NOT let EcoSphere coerce you in to going to the mall for some "DDR fun."
DO NOT put a wig on your EcoSphere and place it on the back of a donkey.
DO NOT confuse your EcoSphere for a shot glass of Congnac.
DO NOT take your EcoSphere to Red Lobster.
DO NOT rest your EcoSphere in kitty litter.
DO NOT let any of these warnings keep you from purchasing the EcoSphere.

just do what I did, put a fire ant colony in a jar. Then you can open up the jar and put in rats for your ants to eat, or put in bull ants for them to battle with!
