Medium Ecosphere

The Original EcoSphere� is the world's first totally enclosed ecosystem - a complete, self-contained and self-sustaining miniature world encased in glass. Be wary of inferior and lower quality imitations. Easy to care for, an EcoSphere is an incredible learning tool that can provide powerful insights about life on our own planet... and provide a glimpse of technology that's shaping the future of space exploration.

But an Ecosphere is much more than a scientific breakthrough - it is a work of art. A living treasure to own or give to someone special. Each EcoSphere is carefully crafted to achieve an aesthetic, meditative beauty that can soothe any environment, including home, classroom or office.

The EcoSphere is a closed ecological system, where plant and animal life are permanently sealed in handblown glass.  Only light is able to penetrate so there is no food or water that has to be added.  Everything is recycled in this self-sustaining ecosystem.  It contains bright red shrimp, filtered sea water, algae, air, gravel, gorgonian, and microorganisms that are mutually sustaining.  Developed by NASA, it is both environmentally educational and aesthetically pleasing.  Care for your EcoSphere is simple, requiring only indirect natural or artificial light with a temperature range of 60� to 85�F.   This miniature ecosystem elegantly functions as both a form of art, and an educational unit which can be displayed in corporate offices, the home, or educational facilities.
