Goldfish do indeed sleep but not in the same way humans do. They cannot close their eyes as they have no eyelids. When they sleep they become less active and tend to stay in one place. They sleep in little amounts at a time.

The average lifespan of a goldfish is about 9 years, but, this can vary greatly as goldfish are one of the most misunderstood fish that people buy.
If given the correct amount of space (one goldfish needs 20 gallons alone, plus 10 additional gallons for every goldfish added), proper filtration, regular weekly maintenance, and a varied diet which includes fresh veggies, they can live long full lives.
