life span - CBB copper band butterfly

[ckoral]

I have had a copperband since oct 31. He gets along now with the community, and after he finished off all the feather worms and aptasia, he is now eating and even competing for mysis shrimp.

I was wondering how many years you have seen them live for in the hobby?

I had mine for over 2 yrs, before he got taken out by something and angel brought into the tank.

M father's CBB has been around for 3 years now.

Does well even with 3 large tangs that get very excited/aggressive during feeding time.

The tank is a 180 gallon tank with around 200 lbs of live rock and some soft corals.
