You shouldn't keep long goldfish and the small fat ones tgether as they will just compete for food and as the small ones are not as quick they are likely not to be fed!

The commonest cold water fish kept in aquaria are Goldfish. There are literally thousands of species of coldwater fish so that is far too many to mention here. May I recommend that you check out your local pet shop and see what they have available.
