Mermaids are fictional creatures, and as such a writer can make up any aspect about them that they want to, such as how long they can hold their breath underwater, or whether they even need to do so.

There is a myth that mermaids can hold their breath underwater indefinitely, but in reality, humans can hold their breath anywhere from 1-3 minutes on average. If mermaids were real, they would likely have similar breath-holding capabilities to humans.
