You can feed goldies an almost endless diet, from broiled veggies to worms (freeze-dried bloodworms, tubifex worms, earthworms...) as well as some fruits (grapes, apples). I feed my goldies a diet that includes freeze-dried bloodworms, earthworms, kernels of corn and dethawed frozen peas (with the outer shell removed). They also love potato, houseflies (which do fall into the tank occasionally) and boiled lettuce.

I have never heard of feeding a goldfish rice! I don't believe it has much nutritional value - its much like bread, which goldfish can also eat if they have to, but contains many protiens. Brown rice would be the better choice of the two for it contains the most vitamins.  Uncooked rice - those crunchy hard pellets - would not be good for certain to feed to your fish. They like their food mushy and soft. Maybe if you steam it first...but don't take my word for it, I've never tried!

I'll just eat the rice myself

Yay! Did they like it?

Rice and pork adobo so yummy.

Rice and Pork adobo...never heard of it but it sounds yummy!
I think you should give us the recipe! LOL!

LOL guys!

Rice sounds interesting... I've had it plenty of times but for a goldie??? I'll definitely go do some research and see if I can contribute anything new to the conversation that nobody has added yet.

Thank you, that was interesting!  I'd like to try and make that!
If you want to, you could send me the recipe via personal messages!

It's sometimes like that But you'll notice that Titan will see the point with the peas soon enough! He may not have noticed them just yet

I got a new book and it DOES say that you can feed rice to goldfish.
Actually it is a book about raising fish in china and they do feed rice to their goldfish, cooked that is and lots of live food...water fleas in particular!

This book is called Chinese Goldfish and it seems to be written in simple text, like it may have been translated into english or something.  Or maybe written how the person speaks english??  I don't know but it shows how the chinese kept goldfish for years since before the Ming dynasty.  It has super cool pictures, only 100 pages tho but really interesting.
