Life span of Comets

[Dily]

I have recently bought three orange and white comets who, because they grow so large, will eventually be placed in my outside pond. They are in a thirty gallon well established tank right now. How long do these fish live? I only paid fifteen cents apiece for these because they were in the feeder tank. The largest one is about two and a half inches.

I had a couple that lived for the better part of 10-12 years, and that was inside in a 40g tank.

The record is over 40 years.

10-20 with good care is not bad at all though.

My comet is 6-7 years and going strong.

I have a few in my pond that are between 13-15 years old.
