Mizar 21,
Hundreds of millions of people eat goldfish/carp and do just fine but as Pierson points out "moderation" is the key. Other food items or fish species for example should be provided. Remember that trout "pieces" are not a whole food unless you're offering the entire fish in segments. In that case the odd goldfish would be beneficial. Except for the expense as noted by P.H., platys, mollies, guppies and the like are just fine. Any appropriate size, fresh water fish with NO known toxins will suffice. However even though water snakes do fine with catfish (spines) I would be cautious.
