The hornwort sporophyte looks like a small capsule, and it releases spores into the wind.
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.
In ferns, the dominant generation is the sporophyte.
In most plants, the sporophyte generation is dominant. In fern, for example, the fern itself is the sporophyte. This organism produces spores that fall to the substrate below and grow into a separate organism called a gametophyte. The gametophyte produces sperm and eggs in order to produce a new sporophyte which grows out of the gametophyte's body, destroying it. It is important to note that the gametophyte is haploid and the sporophyte is dploid.
Yes, in ferns, the sporophyte generation is dominant and produces spores that give rise to the gametophyte generation. The gametophyte generation is a smaller, independent stage that produces gametes (sperm and egg) which fuse during fertilization to form the sporophyte generation.
A moss sporophyte acquires nutrients through its connection to the gametophyte, which provides it with water and nutrients through a structure called the seta. This allows the sporophyte to grow and develop in its environment.

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.
Blade grass, like other flowering plants, primarily exists in the sporophyte stage of its life cycle. The sporophyte is the dominant phase, characterized by the production of seeds and flowers. The gametophyte stage is reduced and typically occurs within the reproductive structures of the sporophyte. Thus, blade grass is predominantly a sporophyte.
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.

The dominant generation in gymnosperms is the sporophyte generation, while in angiosperms it is also the sporophyte generation. The sporophyte generation produces the structures that we commonly recognize as trees, shrubs, and flowers in plants.
In moss, where the sporophyte grows directly out of the top of the gametophyte.
