have had my cleaner shrimp for about 2.5 years as well.. and he wasnt that small when i bought so he must be older

I've never kept a cleaner shrimp for anywhere close to a year. In fact, I've found shrimp to be the shortest lived inverts I've kept, with the exception of my coral banded shrimp, which appears to be immortal. I've had it about 7- 8 years now.

average lifepsan is about 2-3 years, but there are some exceptions where some live much longer for whatever reasons....
