it will survive as long as your water levels are good and clean. if your water is very good they will multiply and filter the water very well

i doubt it will survive, i got loads on my LR and they all just rotted. its a sponge, overnight shipping will not cut it because there is only moist newspaper over the rock. and the sponge will just drain all that water it is carrying.
