Longest running aquarium?

I was wondering who has an aquarium setup up for a long period of time? By long I mean in terms of years. It could be freshwater, saltwater, big tank, small tank, etc. Maybe you could provide a quick recap of the size tank, is it a reef setup, fish only.... Maybe some pointers on how you were able to keep it up and running for an extended period of time.
Just a thought that crossed my mind. Thanks for sharing.

 

i know a guy in the cleveland area that has an aquarium that has got to be at least 30yrs old.....and he still has the same anemone he had when I was a young kid (as young as memorable ~5) and i'm about to be 27...and he had it set up long before that..

 

PaulB on reefcentral. Close to 40 years I think.

 

It's my tank, which I've had for 1 month! 1 month! beat that record!

 

I'm waiting for someone to say, "one day, mines been up for one day". Ha

 

:::gasp::: you said the name of that we do not speak on 3reef....lol

 

ha ha, well, I try not to, but Paul's tank is just way too impressive not to mention

 

Can you get a pic?

 

I don't dare LOL PM sent.

 

an old old man at our country club has had his for something like 25 or more years..i think its 500-600ish gallons..not 100% sure on every detail, but it was custom built and has been upgraded as technology allows us..it was fowlr for the longest time and then started corals about 10 years ago..which still is a long time..
