I was once in a tough situation where i forgot to feed my fish but didn't have any fish food. That's OK. Goldfish are vegetarians but still need protein. So no "treats" can be a regular diet. Fish food is good for a regular diet; it has protein.

You can offer your goldfish Oranges, romaine lettuce, zucchini, and skinned peas. Only give your goldfish a small amount of these treats.

What does a goldfish eat but that is not fish food?

Goldfish are omnivores, and they can eat lots of vegetables (but don't try feeding them any fruits...I never tried....but wouldn't it be weird to feed goldfish a mango or a peach?). Fish food is all protein, usually, and eating only fish food usually helps constipation happen to your poor goldfish. Imagine humans eating only meat! So I always feed my goldfish pieces of lettuce and the insides of cooked frozen peas. They make my fish healthier. Though I have never tried, some goldfish owners feed their goldfish live food, like those tiny shrimps. It is healthier for your goldfish to eat a wide variety of good, not only fish food.
