I just hit the 3 year mark....I got this fish in a 150 gallon,fowlr....never any signs of ich in the 3 years I had him....also its been with the same fish for 3 years,all were added at the same time.

Died due to suspected complications post move / upgrade. Died within 48hours of being reintroduced

I checked alive 6 months as that how long I've had her. I also checked alive 5 years as she was in a local tank that long before I got her.

Going on 4 years for ours gonna be rehousing into the 360 soon but it's a devil of a fish so it will go in last

About 14 months now and it is in 110 gal reef tank

Will be 2 years with mine this coming February! He was quite thin when I got him but plumped up quite a bit over the year. He gets ich often for no apparent reason but always kicks the ich within a few days so I've never treated him.
