Although most fish that I buy seem to not have a very long shelf life.... Especially fish from the philippines...
I had both of mine in my 34g with tiny gobies, and he was the one giving the others competition for food. I fed well so everyone can get enough food. Yesterday I talked with the guys I work with at Aquarium Illusions and they said six months to a year is about average life span for them Couldn't find much info when I tried goggling it other then one guy on RC said he kept a group of them together for 3yrs. So maybe they live longer in groups?
