Sorry to hear of your loss, it always sucks to lose livestock (specially wild caught). Unless you get them juvenile sized, you can't be assured of any wild caught fish's age (well, other than the ones with different juvenile coloration ). A fish could easily be 'old' if it's adult sized when purchased.
