Betta fish lifespan in wild. How Long Do Betta Fish Live in the Wild?

How Long Do Betta Fish Live in the Wild?? Typically, bettas live about 2 years in their natural environment. Their lives are much different in their natural habitat

Bettas originally live in swamp and river basins in Malaysia, Brunei, Indonesia, Vietnam, Thailand, and Cambodia. They can also be found in rice paddies, ponds, small streams, and even drainage ditches.

While you might think these areas are constantly wet, they do go through significant dry seasons which causes the betta’s habitat to change drastically. They spent a large portion of their lives jumping from puddle to puddle to find larger bodies of water.
