It is unlikely plants and goldfish will be successfully growing in a 'fishbowl'. The reason for this is that a fishbowl is not large enough to even house a goldfish properly.

In this case the plants do in the aquarium what plants/trees do in our air. The plants clean the water by removing impurities like the carbon dioxide and nitrates that are produced by the fish. Plants also produce and release Oxygen during the process of photosynthesis as they grow and breathe. So the plants are nourished by the fish and the fish get better water conditions provided by the plants. Good result all round. When this is achieved successfully in an aquarium it is called a 'balanced aquarium'
