at or near some sort of record?
< We get asked about the longevity of bettas every once in a while and it is always hard to determine because many fish are sold as adults but are probably only a few months old. In the wild bettas probably don't live any longer than a couple of years. Your Betta has reached a remarkable age. Probably in part due to the low ambient water temps. It may be a record but I don't know of anybody that keeps track. -Chuck> Chuck Re: Age of a Betta and male’s tail Fin Hi Chuck, Thanks again for your reply. I have a question about how to find out what age my fish can be. If I measure the length of my male Betta’s body only, he is 2 inches and my female is 1.5 inches.
