Best Answer

I have fed both my Sarasa goldfish fresh basil on occasions and they seem to enjoy it alot. I feed them all sorts of fruit, veg and live foods to keep them healthy and happy. Things like:

cooked shelled peas

lettuce

spinach

orange -skin and piff removed

chunks of cucumber-great play toy too. They love to get the seeds out from the middle.

frozen and live bloodworms, ect

Be careful you do not overfeed them and keep an eye on water parameters-not to much sugary foods, so orange as an occasional treat. Fish are ominvores so they benefit from a whole range of foods. Dont feed anything processed or un-natural.

Yes you can, but use romaine lettuce attached to a veggie clip inside the tank.
