A regular goldfish (comet goldfish) can live for 7-8 years with good care.
It depends on how you treat your fish. A goldfish will grow depending on how big its tank is. The bigger they get, the longer they seem to live. I had my goldfish in a pretty big tank. They grew to about five inches long and the last one I had was about three years old.
From the time you bought it till the time its floating on its back :).jokes.some goldfish lives for up to 10yrs.so it depends how well they are looked after.
I believe the record is 43 years but 10-15 is not uncommon with proper care.

However some bad owners leave fish with other people and in lockers and the poor fish never even makes it home. Some of these owners include sammy.
