treesprite March 16, 2015 Share March 16, 2015 (edited) How long has anyone from the aforementioned posts kept these butterflies? I was going to ask the same thing. After learning how much the lives of tangs are shortened in captivity, I'm not sure I want to get another tang. I'm just saying that as a reminder that it isn't just the immediate health of a fish that matters, it's also how we are shortening their lives.

mling March 16, 2015 Share March 16, 2015 I had my Klein for over 5 years. It got rid of all Aiptasia. No problems with corals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesprite March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Five years doesn't seem like a very long time. How old was it when you got it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dshnarw March 20, 2015 Share March 20, 2015 Five years doesn't seem like a very long time. How old was it when you got it? 5 years is a typical lifespan for a wild Klein's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesprite March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 I have trouble understanding how even in nature some fish are so short lived and others are not. Very confusing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrench March 22, 2015 Share March 22, 2015 Same reason some dog breeds are shorter lived than others. Not to mention predation... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
