Question

What is the lifespan of a silverdollar fish? I have one and it has died after 5 years.

Answer 1

8-10 years is the average life span of a silver dollar, but yours could have died from natural causes anyway.  Not all fish fulfill thier life expectancy.

Answer 2

I just did some research some sites say 5-10 years though I saw many others said 10+ years one person said he had one for 16 years it seems like there is no common answer for this answer.

Sorry I  didn't find anything more exact.. so at least 5 years is the answer.

Answer 3

The lifespan is 10+ years if given at least a 20 gallon tank 40 or bigger would be better, they grow to 5 inches.
