How long do fish (Neon Tetras) live?

[Lisaschrack]

Hi,

I have a well established tank with all the proper parameters (measured by liquid test kit), nothing new added to tank in many many months (6 months or more) and that was simply adding additional plants. 3/4 water change done weekly.

Last week I had 2 neon tetras die a day apart. I usually lose 1 or 2 fish year but never 2 a day apart. Neither fish appeared distressed or ill and they were 2 of the older neons in the tank (I would say 3 or more years old).

How long do Neon's normally live?

You do understand that this is a saltwater forum correct? You keep asking questions about freshwater fish, which this forum doesn't talk about or specialize in...
