In optimal conditions, goldfish may live more than 20 years (the world record is 49 years); however, most household goldfish generally only live six to eight years

With care, regular feeding, and concern for health matters, goldfish can live for 20 years or more. The smaller variety kept in most home aquariums average six to eight years, but goldfish kept in ponds can live for many years, even outliving their owners.

I had five goldfish that survived for 10 years! i think it depends a lot on the size of ur tank as well, and the proportion of food... thats what a petshop owner once told us...they grow according to the space they have

Hi sexy babe, goldfish can live between 10 and 25 years depending on how much care they get. one once lived for 45 years! (google)

If you look after them well, they can last to 15 or 16 years

i bought 4goldfish when i was in 6th grade, and now i'm in eighth grade. all the fish have gone. :(

however, you may have a different kind of goldfish, so no need to feel scared already

There are tell tale signs.

Like: they stop living

or they stop doing anything, or they become motionless.
