The longest lived Zebra I've heard of is more than 10 years, and still breeding

So you can count on keeping your guys for quite a few years if you give them good care! That's one of the things I really like about the Zebra, compared to a guppy or Threadfin - 2 years and that's it .... it's too sad to loose fish, so I stick to catfish, they can grow old together with me

I don't know

All my adults are wild caught, so it's not easy to say....
