Rare occurrence

[Dburr1014]

I added the new royal gramma two years ago to my existing Royal gramma who is now over 10 years old. And I get the rare occasion to see them not only together, but the new one that lives in a cave and never wants to come out.
That old guy seems to be staring me down, LOL.

Cheers.

I never knew they could live 10 years. What’s their lifespan?

I did a search and came up with 8 to 10 years, based on when you got it (as a juv or adult).

Glad it worked out so well, I love my royal gramma.

The lifespan is usually about 8 years. According to Jay Hemdal my fish is geriatric.
This is one of my first pictures of him in April of 2014.

Do you still have this tank? I can’t believe 2014 was a decade ago.

I started the 75 gallon in 2014, a few weeks ago I switched everything over to my new 150.

Royal's have always been one of my favorite smaller fish.
