Who has the OLDEST fish? and what is it

[TicaL]

I've been dieing to know who has the oldest fish on here that's just like some huge Arowana, Clown Loach, or any fish really that's OLD, and of course pictures should be included. I'm not entirely sure of which species have the longest life spans but I just want to hear about some of the members long kept fishy friends as a fish of such is why I have embraced this hobby so much.


PS. Still kind of new, so sorry if there is a thread like this somewhere I have yet to find. I'd just like to hear about some of the more well known fish of members on MFK

I adopted one of my adult annectens from a LFS - He was dropped off with torn fins and all - I can't imagine what the heck would do that to an adult annectens - but anyways, he looks pretty old, but then again, who knows, with lungfish...

My friend won a goldfish at a carnival when he was a little boy. Fifteen years later he still has the goldfish!

I used to have a tiger oscar that was a good 10+ years old. I gave him to a lady I worked with at my old job. He's still with us causing mayhem in her tank. Fish probably is at least 12 years old now.
