Very old eliza

[blueblue]

It is the oldest Eliza among all the eliza i have on hand now.
It is about 6-7cm long, with a goose-forehead, and a spear-head shaped
caudal fin. Despite its age, it is still shining with its blue scales

Hi Blueblue, It is always a pleasure to see your pictures, even if I am often too lazy to write reply. But keep up the good work!

Now a question, how old is old? I would guess between two or three years, am I correct?

Regards / Chris

Thanks Chris, for the age of apistos,
after 1 year, it starts to be "old"...
the eliza in the photos is about 2 years old, i think

Hi Blueblue,

I had an Eliza, who was even older. He became bent and hunchbacked at the end of his life. Look at this:

how old was it when the photo was taken?

I can't say for sure, but I think, he was about 2-3 years old.
