a betta can live for 2-3 years. It belongs to a kind of ornamental fish with a relatively short life span. If it is well fed, it can live for 4-5 years, or even 6 years. It is worth noting that the lifespan of bettas varies according to sex. The life span of female fish is shorter, and it can live for 2-3 years. Males live longer. They can live three to five years. Not
all bettas can live to a normal age, such as poor water quality, lack of oxygen, when sick, if not handled properly, it is likely to die immediately. Want to let the fighting fish live longer, the water temperature is best to stabilize, control at 24-27 degrees Celsius, whether it is to change water or when the season changes.

? 1. Bettas generally enter maturity at 3-4 months and can reproduce. If you want to choose the parent fish for breeding, you'd better choose the fish for more than half a year, so that the quality of the larvae is relatively high and the survival rate is also high.
2. Usually, when the body length is more than 4 centimeters, it can also reproduce, but it is better to choose a fighting fish with a body length of more than 5 centimeters, so that the parent fish can develop well.
3. When choosing breeding parent fish, we should choose the big ones, not the small ones. The reproductive system is easy to develop poorly and can not produce high-quality larvae.
