If cared for and you do your proper testing and water chanegs most will live for 20-30 years. There has been records of goldfish living for up to 40-45 years however! my goldfish are all now 15 years old!

Goldfish should live at least 20 years. None of this "they only live a few weeks" rubbish you hear from stupid people who can't care for them properly.
