How old are your fish (or invertebrates)

The only fish I know the age of is my Striped Raphael, which is going on a year now. #mewiththemeaslyages LOL
That’s really impressive!
I’ve only been really serious about the hobby since 2016, but I have some silver dollars that have been alive that long, so about 7 years give it take.
Everything else is somewhere on that line, anywhere from 7 years to a few weeks/months with my most recent fish.a

Endli over 9 was given to me as a juvenile.
2 Lapredi around 7 years old since I've had them.
2 Senegal 8 yrs old.
2 Banjo catfish 6 yrs old.

My other fish are 2 yrs or less.

Casper hit 5 years old this September
I came back into the hobby in 2015. I still have fish from the very first batch I bought back then as tiny juveniles. Giant gourami, bala sharks and clown loach.
When
Redshark1
sees this he'll put everyone to shame with the ages of his clown loach.

The documentation is that there are records of them being kept at the place for 18 years, but they were probably already ~2 years old when they arrived. 2017 to today makes them 24-26 years of age. They look mature for sure, but not declining or particularly old in any way.
I also have a stripped headstander who might be 8 years old, and I recently lost a flagtail Prochilodus (not to senility) of probably the same age.
