What's the longest living fish you've had? While I can't remember how old it was, our algae eater got quite big & we had him for many years when I was a kid. He was the first one we had & outlived others we had bought. Don't know what his secret was

I have Gold fish for over 5 years now. Probably this would standout among other fishes in my tank!

A fish that can live up to 60 years must be an interesting fish, if you ask me! I mean that's almost like the number of years one can live on earth.

In terms of pets, koi and goldfish live the longest. Koi live to be 20 to 25 years and goldfish live to be 10 to 20 years. Pea puffers can live to be over 18 years as well.

I know I’ve had a goldfish last a good long time before, but I don’t remember exactly how many years.

Goldfish live long and are easy to maintain. You can choose Angel also, but it requires special care. Oscars on the other hand are easy to maintain and they too live longer.

The longest living fish we ever had were some goldfish. My Grandma had them at first in her garden in her pond and when it got too much for her, we took them and the pond and placed it in our garden. They must have been with my grandma for around 3 years and then we had them for at least another 3 years before they passed. That is the longest I remember any fish we had lasting.
