- I show my how my brine shrimp terrarium blocks are made as well as test it out in a vacuum.
here is the old video of the terrarium tank: • My Terrarium
Here is several minutes of just the shrimp swimming: • Shrimp in box with music
Help me make videos by donating here: / codyslab
"Shrimp in a box 3" has been searched for so many times that it has become one of TH-cam's auto-complete defaults. Please update this story.
some time ago Cody mentioned that all shrimps died :((
It was pointless to dicate full video to Shrimp colony obituary.. :D
The shrimp live! new video coming soon!
@@matt.604 WHAT? really? like for real? like you not lyin? can i trust you?
Patrick Sweetman still true!
@@SlumMattress It is. The video is available on his Patreon. Not sure when he will post it publicly here.
*adds heavy water just to fuck with well-meaning researchers that may find your experiment in the future* Never change, Cody.
You should sell these, I would totally buy one to sit on my desk and look at.
CasuallyAwesome they sell them but are super expensive
CasuallyAwesome they already do. Their called Seamonkey's
dwax74
they're*
dwax74 they're
couple dollars at walmart.
You grew a lawn inside a tank. I'm not sure how to process that.
The Lawn Care Nut, damn does this mean Cody just dominated you via tank lawn??? You can't take this lying down.
Into beer...
The Lawn Care Nut you have some good videos
The Lawn Care Nut that wasn’t a lawn. Also “Lawns are a waste of valuable growing space” according to Cody (and myself)
Hevy water should protect the box from the sun radiation
You should set up a livestream with the shrimps. Name it "Life in a box"
With music playing in the background
Imagine living in a small universe and seeing another one you will never interact with every day. Life in a box.
DO IT!
That would probably go viral
Yes please! I'll make it my wallpaper :D
I can imagine after Cody has passed, many years after, and people come to search his house to find all of his awesome experiments and inventions and then on his desk under the window light you see a box with the shrimp in still alive, eat and producing and continuing the cycle of life in a box.
Please make a Shrimp In a Box Three please a few months after this one or when something happens to the first if ever and give us a update on the latest one.
And when researchers analyse the box they will be puzzled as to why it had a higher concentration of deuterium...
"mama mia these shrimp poop deuterium! Our world is saved!"
thats really romantic and unreal. But oh well.
He already said he is going to to an update video.
I know, saying anyway tho.
other people are trying desperately to make an eternal terrarium. cody makes one by accident that lives for over ten years xDD
JMC UltimateLP You can't really make anything "eternal" (second law of thermodynamics).
Matt Wood it would gain the energy lost from the sun back as heat so it would be relatively eternal.
Neat, how'd you make that terrarium
"I shoveled some cow shit in a barrel then sealed it up"
O...oh...
Landon W. He's probably talking about the heatdeath of the universe
Matt Wood
Bro yeah you can his shrimp box is like super old
Researchers or paleontologist thousands of years from now and possibly extraterrestrial in origin trying to figure out why everything is dead except these curious blocks will be slightly baffled to find an unusual content of heavy water. Maybe we are the brine shrimp in a slightly larger and more complicated block of someones house as well.
At the right time thanks now i will get nightmares. Just kidding
Any chance that we get "Shrimp In a Box Three"?
hopefully cody isn't like valve
Would love to know if they lasted a year.
Sadly he mentioned in another vid that they all died son......
Peej - which one??
@@enderking1525 Half Life joke?
Fantastic experiment, I really need to make one of these. I like the glass blocks as tiny self-contained environments, and a window of them would be fascinating to see. Do it! I wonder how tardigrades would do.
Bruh those mfs can live years like that.
travel the world dropping off non-native rocks to confuse future geological and anthropological studies
That’s the most evilest thing I’ve ever heard 😂
Put some radiation source (Uranium Ore or small confined UV light) to induce the mutation and evolution of the species. Eventually, if only bacteria survive, they will be unique in the entire Earth.
Robson Hahn this is an awesome idea somebody needs to do it
up up up
Why it should be Illegal?
We are receiving high doses of Radiation. Actually, the Shrimps in the glass are probably more shielded than in the environment.
Honestly, nobody gives two shits about what you do to common bacteria as long as you don't create bio-weapons. It's the same as breeding yourself a unique breed of roses for your garden
What if it turns out like jurassic park or piranha?? O.o''
"this oughta screw with any researchers that decide to do an isotopic analysis" classic
i wonder how much slower that box will develop due to the heavy water affecting the rate of reactions
"adding some phosphoric acid, i don"t see why it would hurt"
"Just for giggles, let's wash it all down with Deuterium Oxide, because screw Isotope Analyst yay."
"The ecosystem died, must've been the tap water"
Iodine isn't bad for shrimp, as a matter of fact, shrimp like krill are high in iodine. BTW, you should try these self sustaining tanks with other species. Triops are a good option, so are Killifish and livebearing fish like guppies and platys. Killifish would be interesting, because their eggs can survive out of water. They are one of the few vertebrate animals that have a behavior called diapause, which stops or delays the growth of eggs until conditions are right
Honestly the fact that you always seem to have at least a half dozen experiments/activities going on is so fucking cool. Getting to watch beekeeping, mining/refining, vacuum chamber tests, and cool chemical reactions all in the same week is a beautiful thing.
gratz on the 1 million subs cody keep up the great work !
w000t
gratzz
999k
999,898 102 away from 1,000,000
I think it's the time to show how they are going :)
I love how if you follow cody's channel for long enough you start to say "Oh thats where project went" Then it turns out you're remembering a vid from years ago
My question is why he just has a tank of algae lying around
It's Cody, so probably for science or fun :)
Doesn't everyone?
Maybe he had a fish tank that he didn't clean for a long time (hopefully without any fish in it), and then got the idea to add even more algae to it.
The furry channel on a science video. huh, didn't know you had brain cells
could be a algae/nitrate scrubber for his aquarium. there are tons of diy videos on TH-cam about them.
So close to 1,000,000 MILLION SUBSCRIBERS!
roughly 100 times earths population.
I meant 1 million subs ;-; awwww
sofias. orange and earth has about 25 BILLION peo le
no, there is about 7 billion people on earth
I think you're the dumb one here.... op said 1 million million subscribers not 1 million.
Hey Cody, i was wondering, how many generations of inbreeding would this box be able to resist? Thanks!
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Can you one make a long running live stream of them called life in a box. Two please sell this I will buy one for up to 60 dollars and I am assuming the rest of the internet would to
EcoSphere brand versions of this have been known to run with shrimp populations for 20 years, so I'd suppose 'lots'.
I wonder if they end up genetically identical after a while.
George Charalambous my hypnosis is that a simpler set of genetics is harder to mess up. So a low amount of seed genetics shouldn't effect the diversity of the shrimp. Also the system should not change in a wat that requires them to adapt. So the genetic downfall is more likely to be genetic drift then inbreeding. According to my hypothesis.
The bigger the box and more shrimp eggs would delay a collapse I would think. Ah but how big? Dunno. Twenty gallons maybe?
he straight added heavy water this is why I love cody
I have never gotten this much enjoyment out of one of your videos, this one is strangely entertaining and inspiring, as of about 3 minutes ago, I just purchased some brine shrimp online and I have found all the ingredients necessary to make my own self sustaining eco-system, there will be a video of this on my channel within about 2 or 3 weeks (depending on how long it takes the brine shrimp to arrive!)
Cody what if you made an ecosystem out of something bigger like a fish tank or something with multiple different species of animals in it?
Earth is a pretty big ecosystem. Make a second earth :)
They already did that; look up the Biosphere 2 haha
Yeah, that didn't go so well :/
Finger Gun Studios f
@@chrishuab2364 Which was due to concrete walls slowly absorbing O2 which decreased the concentration in the air.
Otherwise it worked fine, although not perfectly.
A time lapse video on the development of that ecosystem would be really cool.
lmao 'that should really screw with any researchers...' I woke my wife from napping with my guffaw. Well done, Cody.
Your first to trim box experiment changed my life. I now have a deep obsession with self sustaining ecosystems
1:30 You mentioned that it would need a shielding against radiation. As far as I know, some smaller creatures can handle lots of radiation. Like the LD50/30 for a human is somewhere around 3 Gray, whereas for a wasp its at about 1000 Gray (according to wikipedia). For smaller creatures like these shrimps it should be even higher, right? Would be cool it you could expose them to some radiation (but be careful).
We take the Shrimp in a Box and push it somewhere else!
pro tip , if you dissolve the things that would do a double displacement separately, they get to concentrations where they don't crash out of solution. Learned that when I was doing work experience at the hydroponics shop.
I love the concept of fucking with researchers years from now who may not have all the information you've given us
Youre gonna hit a million cody
any updates on this?
They died
A Person! How do you know?
Cody... Just because I understand the words you use, doesn't mean you don't sound like a mad scientist.
In the 70's they marketed these to children...I remember getting them and putting them in some water and watched them grow and swim...can not for the life of me remember what they were called, but this sure did bring back memories.
Those little things are enjoying themselves and then "HOLY SHIT GOOD HAS RETURNED TO SPEAK!!! WE ARE UNWORTHY OF UNDERSTANDING HIS DIVINE WORD!!!"
Like the scene from that men in black movie "all hail cody! Giver of algae!"
I live in Portugal and I will try to do that, but I will get the shrimp, the algae and the water from the sea.
Rodrigo Pereira good luck, buddy! I hope it'll go well.
Upload a video!
Brine shrimp need water Saltier than the sea
I have a corked glass soda bottle with freshwater, algae, gravel, and some tiny daphnia-like animals. There used to be a little duckweed in there, but that has decayed after a period of not growing. There also used to be 2 small pond snails, but they never reproduced and later died. The algae growth used to fluctuate wildly, but it has now stabilized to a small "bush" at the bottom. It's pretty neat and shows no signs of stopping.
Literally acting as God here, making a recipe for life adding pinch of different ingredients until the conditions are just right. Love it.
What if we're life in a box created by some stupid smart creature like Cody?
We would have been extinct a million years ago
That question birthed religeon.
Flat Earth! Told you it was trur, morons.
"If there is too many of them, they will end up killing each other."
Wow sibling relationships at there finest.
I've been patiently awaiting this update and hope to see the new box do as well as the first! I don't know why but this just makes me happy.
This is a pretty cool idea- Cody. I'm sure you could devise a way to replace the atmosphere and dissolved gasses for a really awesome experiment! Replace some of the inert nitrogen with more oxygen. How would a high-oxygen environment (say 30%) affect the brine shrimp over several successive generations?? What morphological changes could be observed? Increased size?? Changes in proportions? ... who knows??? You could simulate various atmospheres - at different periods in Earth history (like the Paleozoic era). That would be very interesting indeed. I'm sure the professors at Utah will all want one...
How else could one go about devising such an experiment?? Your glass box is unique in this way. Once you set the basic atmospheric perimeters - that's it! It will last seemingly forever. I can't think of an easier way to conduct such a long-term "maintenance-free" experiment. What would happen in 20 years time if the culture is sustained? ...or 50 years?? Can you even imagine? Then crack 'em open and take a look at the biology.
Anyway thanks for the upload, look forward to seeing more!
different coloured algae red blue orange would be cool, or an algae war red against blue and so on :)
Space shrimp?! When pigs fly! And plants growing off of crap
I liked this mostly because of the shrimp playing with the oxygen bubble it was sooo cute
*oxygen bubble
My elementary school had like a hallway of these glass boxes. It would be awesome if they were all full of brine shrimp like that one
Oh snap he's at 999,717 almost at that mill
Do you think the shrimps in the glass will evolve differently if you leave them long enough?
when cows fly if by long enough you mean millions of years, then yes probably :p
Actually microevolution is a thing
Well I'm not a scientist :p or biologist
You don't have to be a professional to make sure you know what you're talking about before answering a question, almost all of this can be found somewhere on wikipedia
Evolution does not always take millions of years. There are swallow populations for instance that live close to major highways who have slightly shorter wings than their normal counterparts because having shorter wings makes them more maneuverable and enables them to evade cars better.
There are also rattle snake populations who have lost their ability to rattle since humans would kill them so much and one way to find them was to get them to rattle by pissing them off with noise so you could hear where they are. The ones with deformed rattles would survive more often because they didn't get killed by humans.
I love these Shrimp videos. It's weird, but I find them strangely soothing, and it makes me really want to try for myself. As always, amazing videos!
I hope we can see an update on these soon! I know a lot of your situation has probably changed over the years but I'm still excited to see the box!
That was awesome Cody !!
Marks Shrimp Tanks wow its mark
only about 300 subs left till 1,000,000
Might be fun to install crossed polarizing filters around the block. Then it would appear dark, with glowing shrimp!
wish we would learn things that you do in videos in school because I actually like this
4:40 It's like baking a cake and playing god at the same time :o
Where's the update?
I’m waiting to!
They died
Did they actually die? Is there a video about them?
@@DrPotassium Yeah bro
Definitely want to see more of this project in the future
Great video, i love these self-sustaining terrarium things.
Could you please give us an update video?
Alright, wacky idea time: After long periods of adaptation to each box, could you start a selective breeding process with adults from each box and see if you can breed a super-shrimp of some sort? I'm talking like, subject one box to "enhanced gravity" via centripetal forces, subject another box to minimal light energy, subject another box to sustained water currents, subject another box to low temperatures, subject another box to high temperatures, etc. Do all of these things until each box's shrimp have adapted to thrive in each condition, THEN begin selective breeding to try to get offspring with multiple adaptations. It would take years, and each condition would probably have to be gradually increased over time until the shrimp are able to survive and thrive in each extreme condition.
11:44 - Huh! So those illustrations of Sea Monkeys playing with little beach balls were accurate after all!
I had a little glass orb of shrimps in my bathroom when I was a kid. It was a self contained ecosystem. Super cool!
I’m still waiting on part 2 of this
update?
Cody, you're like the modern day Mr. Wizard! Keep up the good work.
This video inspired me and now I have to self sufficient ecosystems of my own in my window. Please do more!
13:37 minutes long
1337 !
nice catch
Shreyas rao
dammit I was going to comment that XD
leet
leet boiis
IT'S MY SHRIMP IN A BOX!
Cody this is magnificent. Great job
i have to admit i'm really happy to see these vids, i thought about this when i was a kid seeing these glass boxes... so cool
Gonna give you something so you know what's on my mind.
A gift real special, so take off the top.
Take a look inside it's my shrimp in a box!
Can we get an update on them
9:32 That made me laugh so much, I'm glad I'm not the only one engaged in leaving mysterious for future researchers.
Love these self contained systems. Great videos!
why not make 2 different shrimp cubes and see if you can steer an evolutionary change in one of the colonies by modifying its environment.
Hey Cody, the algae starter you had, was that algae growing in salt water, or was it freshwater algae?
I think he thought about it. It would be funny to see how the ecosystem would thrive without algae though.
considering how much he knows that'll be a hilarious oversight.
Maybe the algae can adapt or some spices in there can live in both salt water and freshwater
It simply wouldn't work at all without the algae. The algae is what provides the conversion from co2 to o2 for the shrimp.
+Spencer P
The shrimp were from the salt lake, not the algae.
If you sold these "Shrimp in a Box" I think I would buy one they as very cool.
CODY! congratulations on the 1 million subscribers! i hadn't even noticed! i love watching your videos man, keep up the hard work!
Please, please make more ecospheres it's my hobby and no one else does it I'd like your ideas on the different way to set them up.
Cody, a question. Begining at around 12:12 the projection of your laser on your wall (right half the of the video) looks like a rolling image of some sort (you can see blobs and patches projected and moving to the right). I can not understand how that got projected. Any idea?
the radiometer was rotating
Ah, I see. Thanks! Got confused. :D
That's even more confusing Cody...
That or I'm too damn dumb to understand.
If the radiometer was rotating COUNTER-clockwise, why was the chamber rotating clockwise?
@@theCodyReeder Dear Cody I have a question too. I wont ask strictly why did you end this video with such a great experiment for human race... I mean... If I understand nature right - we should just add a bit of copper coil and neodymium magnet thingy to make a solar engine... Can you contact me please - I wont be annoying - just few questions. Please man - Dnt wanna ask anything else here. Ty! Looking forward to hearing from you. From Russia with love!
love this idea of a whole ecosystem in glass blocks!
really like your home improvement with a scientific twist videos.
When will you upload #3?
Cody this is gonna sound weird but you should try to extract potassium from a banana.
yeah I should!
Mate we're gonna need more of these
Can't wait to see the update, I have some leftover glass blocks just like yours, I have to try this
Can you make an update video
So sealed Shrimps embedded deep into a rock could survive... great addition to science :)
john doe not without sunlight to feed the algae
The algae don't really eat the sunlight. They just use the energy to convert C02 into carbon and oxygen.
Sorry for being pedantic. You're right though, without light this couldn't work.
Maybe some bioluminescent microorganisms?
..if you're going to go out of your way to be pedantic toward someone who you agree was correct, at least be correct yourself.
The primary function of photosynthesis is to convert solar energy into chemical energy and then store that chemical energy (sugars) for future use. Chloroplasts combine carbon dioxide and water with sunlight to produce the storage sugars. In the process, the plants produce oxygen and release a small amount of the water they absorbed. The point isnt making o2. o2 is a waste product of the process. The plant does obtain carbon during this process that it uses for other things, but its far from the only or even the main job of photosynthesis.
+Mark Speir Still wouldn't work--the 2nd law of thermodynamics means that you need an outside source of energy to sustainably power life. The bioluminescent microorganisms wouldn't put out enough light to power the algae to make enough food to feed the microorganisms. Everything would just slowly die.
one of my favorite 'series' on this channel :)
I truly appreciate these videos, you're a brilliant man!
It's been 12 months since you made this block. How are the shrimpies holding up? Did they take?
24 issshhh now
Wheres pt 3
It has been another year, I am looking forward for the shrimp in a bow THREE so much.
Great Video! I would love if you made more of these. Keep up the great work!
Have you guys noticed that the video length is 13:37, or LEET?
is there an update video to this?
Awesome project! Definitely want to see an update!
Can't wait for the next video Cody! These terrarium blocks are really interesting :)
