Answer 5

2 to 3 years My Betta reached 5 years and 7 months before he died.

Answer 6

2~7 years if taken good care of :)

Answer 7

2-5 years BUT you never know how old they are when you get them unless you buy from a breeder.

I have seen one that was apparently 7 years old. I have had lots of these little guys and mine average around 3 years. The ones in community tanks do really really well unless the tank gets sick. Then they are usually the first to go.
