The question of how long Anthias species* may live came up in another thread so I thought it may be a good idea to collect some data from the members here for everyone's benefit.
The following should be specified:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Anthiinae (Anthias, Luzonichthys, Nemanthias, Odontanthias, Plectranthias, Pseudanthias, Serranocirrhitus,...)
The following should be specified:
- Species (when in doubt add picture)
- Collection area if known (Red Sea, Maldives, Philippines, ... you get the idea)
- How long did the fish live in captivity
- Approximate size at time of purchase
- Approximate size at time of death (or currently if still alive)
- Cause of death (disease, accident, old age, unknown) or still alive
- Tank size
- Average temperature they were kept at
