We had some feeder fish (Comets) that lived to be seven and eight years old.

I won one at the fair and it lived 2 1/2 years.

Seventeen years? That's amazing!

I'm not sure, my parents switched them out, so I'm not sure when one died and the other lived. I know, that is terrible.

Also, a 17 year old fish? Holy crap. I just noticed that. My eyes clearly are not working at full potential today.
