Fish...... HELP NOW!?

Question

I have three gold fish i dont know what kind thow they have bigger fins and are orangeish, black and white. dose any one know about how long they live?

Answer 1

They live from 3-5 years

depends on their health and how well you take care of them

Answer 2

20+ years.

i'm hoping they are not in a bowl, or a tank under 20 gallons.

Answer 3

Goldfish can live from 15-20 years to even much older!

When kept in bad conditions (a bowl, a tank too small, or mixed with incompatible fish) a goldfish can only survive around 5 years max, which shortens its life drastically.

Answer 4

I've had those fish before. I believe they're called speckled goldfish..something like that. They have the same lifespan as normal goldfish. ^-^

Answer 5

according to this site http://www.aquariacentral.com/fishinfo/c...    with proper care and conditions they can live upto 15 years

Answer 6

they sound like fancys. given a proper home (for 3 a heavily filtered 50 gallon tank) they can live upwards 30n years!! however, in a less-than adequae home 1 to 5 years max.

Answer 7

Color doesn't really mean anything to goldfish type.  Fantails have a double fan tail, oranda's have knot of skin called a wen on their heads, etc.  For 3 fancy goldfish you would need a minimum of a 40 gallon tank for them to live properly.  If they are common goldfish then more like a 70 or 80 gallon tank or a small pond.

Fancy goldfish will live 15 yrs approx if kept properly.  Commons can live 30 or more.
