Default Algae

I'm just wondering if goldfish eat any algae. Some places say they do, other places say they don't. Thanks

My goldfish certainly never have eaten algae of any kind. Ever.

That's just one person's experience though. I wouldn't count on a goldfish to eat algae.

I have 7 goldfish in a 20g tank and I've noticed them at the front of their tank right against the glass sometimes in the afternoons. I don't know if they are just looking out of their tank or if they are looking for algae. I wipe off the inside of the glass every week, so their side of the tank stays clear. Maybe it's just their way of begging for food.
