What plant is best for a fish bowl for goldfish?
The first thing I would say is, "if you want what's 'best' for your goldfish, you will get rid of the bowl and get a reasonable sized tank/aquarium." The basic rule is 1" of fish needs 1 gallon of water. Goldfish (are really a pond fish) grow to around 12" in captivity so the minimum sized tank you need for one goldfish, (allowing for substrate (for plants to grow in) and about 1" space at the top) would be around 18 to 20 gallons. They like to nibble on all the 'Elodia sp' of plants. Myriophylum, Cabomba and Ambulia are also enjoyed but their favourites are definitely Elodia crispa and E.densa.

You need a lot of things, unless you are raising goldfish in a bowl. You need: (for a tank) A filter A tank (not recommended under 5 gal.)

How many plants per goldfish should you have?
As many plants as you can grow in the tank without overcrowding it. They need room to swim too.
How long to leave light on for Goldfish?
Goldfish do not need their tank light on for more than 6 hours. Unless you have a lot of live plants in your tank, leaving the light on for a long time will result in an increase in algae in your tank. If you begin to see an algae bloom, then you're best to leave the light off for several days.
Can you breed goldfish in a one gallon tank?
No. A one gallon tank is not appropriate for a singular goldfish much less multiple. A ten gallon tank is the bare minimum for a singular goldfish and breeding would require a tank of twenty gallons or more. A one gallon tank cannot handle the chasing that proceeds goldfish mating nor maintain a water quality that is suitable for raising goldfish fry.
