A male betta can live 3 to 5 years when cared for properly. This may seem less when you own the fish, but this is due to the fact that male bettas are usually a year old when you buy them in a store because they are not sold from breeders until their fins fully develop

Only female Bettas can be kept together. That too will only work if they are given reasonably roomy conditions and plenty of cover (plants) and hidey holes. Male betta fish can/ will fight to death if there is another male fish in the tank, a male will sometimes eat a female so your best bet is to have a single betta or a female and a female.
