3-4 months. And they usually stop spawning at a little over a year.
O Do male and female betas get along?
A male Betta will only tolerate a female in with him during the courting and spawning process. Once this (spawning) is over he will kill her if she is left in with him.
Does the female betta fish hold the babys?
No, after spawning the male cares for the eggs and fry for the first few days after hatch. The male chases the female away after spawning is finished and she has no further input on the raising process. A male will often kill a female who's not removed from the spawning tank soon after the process is over as he becomes very protective and considers all other fish including the mother as an invader.
What fish are like betta's?
There are over 20 members of the Betta family that I know of. They are all small fish and all have the same labyrinthine breathing system.

What kind of fresh water fish don't need a heater other than goldf fish?
It is best that all fish have a filter besides Betta fish. Betta fish don't need filters cause the filter pushes them over with their big fins. Goldfish should have a filter on there tank because they are often overfed. If you have a filter you won't have to change the water as often. The only fish that shouldn't have a filer in captivity are Betta fish.
