How long does marine life live?
Hey guys I was just wondering how long can our corals, fish, and anemones live? Just curious.

corals & anemones dont die like unless stated '' something kills them'' some Dendronephtya's in the reefs have spanned over 30 stories tall, this takes quite some years to acheive. but fish are limited.
