actually betta don't live that long. It really all depends on how much care and attention you give your fish. making sure that you give it the proper living conditions that its specie requires will help with longevity. I believe that goldfish are said to be one of the longest lived aquarium fish that there is. up to 75+ years. Some exotic fish such as Arowanas also live for a long time. As for tropical fish regularly kept i'd say cichlids would be next. then again they vary from a few years to up to 10 years or more.

Fish can stay to tell the story for a great quantity of time out of water, anabantoids including Siamese combating fish (Betta splendens) have an organ known as a Labyrinth which facilitates them to respire atmospheric air for a short era. There are some factors which will effect the time the fish can stay to tell the story out of water, if a fish landed on a interior reach uncovered to direct sunlight then that's going to dry out interior an hour or so. besides the shown fact that if the fish landed on a cool, shaded portion of moist grass then it would desire to stay to tell the story for a great quantity of time. each and each time a fish jumps out of a tank it quite is substantial discover the reason for the issue and rectify it. motives why your fish jumped is in all threat adverse water high quality, which could be stemming from being saved in an unfiltered bowl. adverse water circumstances reason stress which will in turn reason the fish to bounce.

Betta usually dont live but around 5 years, and that is if they are cared for extremely well
Koi can live up to 50 years, if kept in a very large tank, or pond and kept very clean healthy, and fed the right types of food

Bettas don't live all that long but are very hardy fish. A similar "cockroach" (nothing-will-kill-it type fish) that I've had and thoroughly enjoyed was a placostamus. They're like dinosaurs and it's so fun to watch them grow big!
