I've never had an oranda for more than 4 years and I rarely hear of
them living more than 5. Yet "regular" gf frequently seem to live for
15, 20, 25+ years. Is it cruel for me to try to keep these cool
looking fancy fish if they have such a short lifespan? Do you have any
suggestions for types of gf that live a long time (I'm sure I could
get attached to anything)? Thanks
