Hi, I'm new here and I have a question. I have a tropical aquarium with a botia (possibly Lohachata) which is now around eleven years old. Does anyone know if this is a record and what the average age for this species is?

I've had these past 15 years & clown loaches past 25.
Average age for both species in captivity is probably less than a year as so many are put in inadequate tanks but reasonable life expectancy is probably 10 -20 years.
