the best psi for launching a bottle rocket high is 65 psi because usually you want it to go high without a big chance of exploding in you face

How much water should you add as fuel for your water rocket?

If it is a commercially produced water/air rocket, follow the instructions exactly. They will tell you how much you need.If you made it yourself from a plastic bottle, you should perform a series of experiments to see how much water gives the best altitude.BTW, there is no fuel in these rockets. Water is the propellant that "pushes" on the rocket as it leaves the nozzle. Air pressure pushes the water out the nozzle.

Will adjusting the amount of water used affect the maximum time the rocket will remain in the air?

Yes, in a sense. In a water rocket, the water is reaction mass. That is the water expelled from the nozzle on the bottom pushes the rocket in the opposite direction. The more reaction mass expelled, the higher the rocket will go. From practical experience, however, you'll find that there is a tipping point. What I mean by this is that there will be a point when too much water will be too heavy, and the rocket will not be able to hold the pressure (water cannot be compressed, so some airspace is necessary), and will not gain much if any altitude.

Is building a model rocket and measuring how high it goes a science fair project?

No, because you need to change something, and measure how high it goes to see how changing one thing can affect the height. For example, if you are using air to launch the rocket, you could change how much air pressure you use, and measure the difference. "How does air pressure affect height?" is a scientific question. Remember if you do this, you must keep everything else the same, or it won't be a fair experiment.
