Wow, 150 years. That is old.

 

[victimizati0n]

2 of our corries are 13yr or over

And we have a common pleco and 2 clown loaches that are about 10yrs old

 

[Karlsbad]

I guess 150 is rare for a lake sturgeon, but apparently orange roughy live to be 125 regularly.

 

[RTR]

LOL @ Karlsbad - but everybody already knows that I am old and crabby!

I've heard of aro's in the orient that have lived as long as 65 years. Mine is about 7-8 years, maybe more.

Oldest Goldfish
The oldest goldfish was named Tish and owned by Hilda and Gordon Hand of Carlton Minniot, near Thirsk, North Yorkshire, UK. It lived for 43 years after being won at a fairground stall in 1956. Hilda and Gordon buried their beloved Tish in a shady corner of their garden, as the fish had disliked direct light.


So, I dunno about 100 year old Koi...
