Lifespan of native aussie shrimps

Hey all, I'm new to Skf here but not that new to keeping native Aussie shrimp, and was wondering what the lifespan of some of our natives were? I have some Caridina typus and was wondering if they were as long lived as their amano cousins (considering that they can live up to a decade) and same goes for riffle shrimps too. From my experiences most of the smaller natives like DAEs and the like only live a few years at most.

I've had some C. typus for ~5 years and DAS for about the same but numbers have dwindled so I'm not expecting them to live on much more than that.
