The oldest form of life still around today are the blue-green algae.

Amoebae are ancient but more complex than algae, therefore more recent, same argument applies to bacteria, which ARE unicellular by the way! Anything more complex .i.e. ANY SORT OF ANIMAL, is very recent compared with the unicellular forms.

The oldest thing that is still alive or the oldest thing that existed after creation, but multiplied & died and continues to procreate and has never evolved into a higher living creature? If it's the first, I think one tree in the Red Wood national forest is the oldest living thing on the planet. If it's the 2nd it would be the protozoa

Amoeba and euglena are very old forms. In higher animals Nautilus (a shelled crab like thing swimming upside down), the coelecanth (a very old fish species with some extra fins), sharks and crocodiles (though became smaller in size) are the oldest animals.

It might be the Ginko tree, it has been around for something like 250 million years (and no, I wasn't there at the time).
...no, hang on, North American Paddle Fish, 300 million years.
... no, its got to be some kind of microbe.
