Thread: how lond do normal goldfish usually live for?

Mine has lived for 2 and a half years, everyone i know finds that amazing how it has lived for so long.

Goldfish can have lifespans up to 20+ years if they are fed a varied diet and housed in exceptional water conditions. They need to be in tanks that are not overcrowded. They need sufficient swimming room and do best if they are kept with their own types.

yup i have a goldfish that has lived for about 3 years now and they live in a pond with other fish. i say thats pretty normal about 2 and a half years

20+ years with good care. Oldest is around 44 years.
