I've had them live up to 7, nearly 8 years in my aquarium in the past. Look after them nicely and they'll last quite some time. Live foods are a DEFINITE bonus when keeping these guys - if you can feed live foods, even if only intermittently, they stay fitter and healthier for longer.

WoW..... 7 years for a Rummynose Tetras is really nice. I wish mine will live that long & for sure they cannot complain on food, as they are fed a vast variarty of foods.
