That looks like my little guy when I first got it. I believe it is a spectacled caiman or a hybrid. Goldfish are horrible for them. I used rosy reds or minows from a bait store. chuncks of chicken are ok but not great (the kind you buy at the supermarket) because they have growth hormones and all kinds of chemicals. Your best bet is whole prey items like crickets pinkies etc things like that. He will outgrow that tank pretty quickly so start thinking of his next house.
