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.
