Lifespan of Dottybacks?

[Zionas]

Does anyone have an idea of how long Dottybacks usually live for? Is 10+ years common? Thanks.

It varies along species but for some of the common species we see I believe it’s about 5-6 years.

I see. So I guess 10+ years isn’t common for this family.

I think if we got more CB specimens in this family, 10ish years is more likely to occur but as we don’t know how old they are when we get them WC, it’s generally around 5-6 years.
