It doesn't think about anything. A goldfish only has a 3 second memory span.

When I was a kid I had a goldfish and my cousin turned the bowl into a bong, so I think my goldfish was thinking one thing, "Dude, I so have the munchies!"

I have a Koi pond, about 500 gallons big and it contains 6 Koi, 8 goldfish,
4 comets, 2 black moors,& uncountable quantity of feeder fish and I will tell you catagorically that at 11am each morning they gather on the surface
and await me to feed them and if that is proof of memory then the science world has some more researching to do.
