Leopard Wrasse Life Span?

[snorvich]

Anyone have data on the topic of the subject line? One of mine just died after about 7 years (juvenile to male over that time)?

No data, but the collective experience leads me to believe 10-12 years is possible.

Have had quite a few leopards over the years. One made it to almost a decade, all the other long-term inhabitants of my tanks were right around 7. Most were acquired when smaller. None of my current crop are more than 3 years under my care.

I'm aware of a couple instances of around 10yrs, I know of plenty that have made it over 6yrs.
