I'm not entirely sure about this species but for the Loricaridae family as a whole in an aquarium setting I'd expect and average of 10 -15 years or longer.The oldest I've heard of is 25 years.

The zebra pleco have a long lifespan, at least 10 years. I heard of a 15-year old breeding colony still producing. Consider that these plecos take 3 years or more to reach adulthood, and you'll realize they live long lives. :D

Best regards.

Daniel.

they are sexually mature at 2-2.5" and will go on to live as stated around 15 years.
