Inle Pupa Sep 16, 2012 #2 I know the Blue ones can live for many years but what about the Black (Cryptoglossa variolos) or Smooth (Asbolus Laevis) ones?

jreidsma Eudicella Sep 18, 2012 #3 I don't know, and I couldn't find much info online :\ I would think that they would live for quite a while, at least a couple years. But I don't know for sure.

Inle Pupa Sep 18, 2012 #4 That is the same I thought but I was just wondering. If the blue ones can live up to 10 years how long can their cousins live?

I Indoraptor230 Egg Feb 10, 2024 #7 I found that the oldest Asbolus laevis has lived 15 years! And they can normally live even 10 years!!

I know "people" say that but I don't believe anyone has documented or even kept one that long. They normally only live 3-4 years.
