A hornwort plant is neither an angiosperm nor a gymnosperm. It is a non-vascular plant belonging to the division Anthocerotophyta, which is separate from both angiosperms and gymnosperms.
The hornwort sporophyte is a thin, cylindrical structure that typically grows vertically from the gametophyte plant. It is usually elongated and consists of a sporangium at the top, which releases spores for reproduction. The sporophyte lacks true leaves or roots and relies on the gametophyte for nutrients.
Bryophyte plants are non-vascular plants that live on land. Unlike all other land plants they lack lignin, which helps maintain cell structure. They reproduce with spores. Examples are mosses, liverworts and hornworts.

My mum has Hornwort in her Kio pond and it has grown very well and the koi have not eaten it at all
The types of animals that usually eat hornwort are plant-eating fish. An example of these types of fish is goldfish.
It is possible that a goldfish would nibble at Hornwort if it is available in its environment but I would not expect it to be a major part of a goldfishes diet.
