Sorry to hear Erin. I remember watching him cruise in that tank and swim right up to your hand when I visited your place a few years back.
 
Sorry to hear! I remember seeing that fish to I think.

I have one or two fish that have been around for many years also, that I am attached to.
Unlike blue chromis for example...
 
@Apon
I still have the purple tang that was in a display tank in my old store...
It’s over 17 now
and in a client’s tank I have an orange shoulder tang that is over 14

I wonder how old the longest lived ornamental aquarium fish has lasted?
(excluding koi)
 
ah man that is a bummer ! looks like he was fat and happy prior though.
i have an approx 17" xanthopterus that i wonder about. think he's about 8 yrs old and he "looks" young but not sure what young looks like

Stop talking about yourself Chris. You’re big and old. If you think you look young then good for you!
