After my previous post, I started thinking about my little cory catfish. I wonder how long they live. We got them about 10 years ago. We started out with six (two spotted and four albino) and are now down to one of each. But these last two have outlived the others by a long time. I don't know how old they were when we got them, but they were pretty small. Of course they don't get very big full grown anyway. The albino ones are more energetic and fun to watch. The spotted ones are timid and hide all day long.

We've also got a couple Harlequin Tetras that are getting old. Not as old as the catfish though. The Harlequins live a lot longer than the Neons. The Neons only last a couple years before they float to the top!
