cleaner shrimp?
How long do cleaner shrimp(skunk) live?
I have one that seems rather large compared to those at the LFS. Anyone know? |

It really depends on the health of your tank! They will live longer with good water and husbandry

Depends on a multitude of things. I had a pair that lived for about a year and a half but I bought them when they were fairly large so I think they were already 3/4ths the way into their life-span.
I have one now that I've had for about a year and it's doing well. I think they can get up to 3 inches in body length, not counting feelers and such.
