My puffer, yellow tang and foxface have all been in my tank for 3+years. My FW angel is also 3yrs and I got her as a silver dollar, so she is about 3.5yrs old.

I have a couple of Tangs (Chevron & Sohal) that are well over five years old, some Bartletts Anthias that are nearly four and some Green Chromis that are also nearly four.

A bit off-topic, I had to get rid of a huge Sarcophyton in 1995 that I'd maintained for 9 years. It is still alive in the tank of an accquaintance. This makes it 18 years old in captivity!

I've got a yellow watchman goby that I've had since October of 1999, and I know he had at least a year on him before that.

A tomato clown that Alf gave me. I've had it for well over a year, he had it for a few years before that. This one is the male, still living, the female went carpet surving about 8 months ago.
