Amazing! This guy is next on my stock list for my 90g. Just can't quite nudge myself to do it... lol beautiful fish tho!

Awesome fish! Wish they weren't so expensive. I find myself thinking how many frags I could have instead of just one fish !

Whats their lifespan usually?

[mr_X]

Most fish can live for 15-18 years.

For this kinda guy in captivity? That'd be sweet! I'd thought they only survived a couple years

[obscurereef]

I read they had a short lifespan of 2-3 years. Maybe someone has a different experience?

[Mudzie]

They are a little pricey, but after i saw one in a fellow reefers tank.. Had to have one.. Awesome, courageous fish with a great personality...

[Mudzie]

As far as life expectancy goes i have read that they are using a lot safer collection practices as of late , that and good tank maintenance & varied diet.. Reefers are keeping these fish longer term...
