you should'nt put parrotfish with goldfish. Parrot fish are known to be be quite mean. It will eat or kill the goldfish if it is smaller than he is. So unless you have a really big goldfish, I suggest not putting it in with the parrotfish.

Angel fish are semi aggressive fish. They may have a tendancy to pick on the gold fish. Also, angelfish need tropical warm water to survive. Gold fish like cold water. I would not put them together. If the Angel is big enough it will eat your goldfish.
