Old age?

[Talon242]

Not sure if this should go here or not. But out of curiousity how can you tell if a fish dies of old age? Seems kinda hard but maybe there are some signs to look for.

Hard to say other than age itself. If a fish is several years old and exhibits no obvious signs of illness, one can assume it was old age. No hard and fast guarantees mind you.

I agree. Some fish lose color, may stop eating...but most show no signs at all, AFAIK.
