Yes - mosquito larvae are like potato chips to goldfish! I have a container water garden on my patio and earlier this week I noticed that it was completely full of hundreds of mosquito larvae swimming around in the water. I bought two (just two!) goldfish and put them in it this morning. Within the course of three hours, the two goldfish had eaten every single mosquito larvae - not a single one left. I strongly recommend common goldfish for anyone who has a mosquito larvae problem in their pond or water garden.
Anything that's hungry enough.

mosquito larva live anywhere in water
Wild bettas primarily eat insect larva that floats on the surface of the water, like mosquito larva. If they swim by it and it wriggles, they eat it.
fish eat misquito larva
Mosquito need to reproduce to survive...larva is one of the steps of this process.
Mosquito larvae are just named according to the species of mosquito, ie - 'Culex larva'.
The goldfish will eat the mosquito's larvae before they can leave the pond and fly.
Mosquito fish are not Goldfish. They are tropical livebearers. They may eat the goldfish food but it is not the right food for them and so will not be good for them.
No. Mosquito larvae graze over plant and rock matter in the water and eat bacteria and algae. Butterfly larvae eat plants on land.
A mosquito larva is called a wriggler because when you see it in water it distinctively wriggles.
