I think that's true for some jellyfish and lobsters too

  For lobsters, that's still a matter for debate. See [1] and [2]. Some animals just do live a long time though. A clam believed to be 405 years old was found in waters off Iceland in 2007 [3]. I'm not a marine biologist, but I suspect that an absence of predators may be relevant.
