ghost shrimp lifespan

i recently got 2 ghost shrimp for my 5 gal tank. can anyone tell me how long they live?

on this website, it says most small shrimp live 1-2 years, but i'm not sure if that's accurate for all the shrimp. i found one website saying 10 years, which seems like an awfully long time for such a small creature. most individual's websites i came across have said thier shrimp died within a couple weeks or months. how long should i expect them to last?

thank you
