Would a few goldfish do OK in here? Help/Advice

Post image

55 gallon. 1 Gourami, 10 pencil fish, some small loaches and some corydoras, a squeaker catfish and a smallish pleco. Would they be OK with all the plants?

I'm not an expert, I don't know much about goldfish, but I don't think the Temps match up, and from goldfish I've seen, they'd eat the plants

Your tank is stocked as is. My goldfish live in a 100 gallon pond due to bioload. Not worth overstocking your tank.

Definitely very different temperatures, plus it’ll add too much bioload. The gourami might also be a risk of fin nipping any fancy goldies.

Say goodbye to the plants
