Q: iCloud family sharing storage

I Have a long video on my iPhone, I have shared it on family sharing and it is now viewable on my iPad, I have deleted it from my iPhone due to the size.

 

where is it stored ? Is there a limit of how much you can share and time limit of when it will delete

iPhone 6 Plus, iOS 9.3.5

    For shared albums are limits to the number of albums and items in the albums you can share.

    For Shared albums is no time limit how long an item will stay, but there are limits to the number of items you can upload within a certain time. 

    See this list:  My Photo Stream and iCloud Photo Sharing limits - Apple Support

     

    The items are stored in iCloud and will stay, as long as you do not delete the shared album or the items within the album.

    But you need to keep a backup on a computer; just in case you delete your shared items accidentally from the shared album. You will not be able to restore them from iCloud.
