If your water temperature for your babies is a fairly consistent 70 degrees F, it can take up to 5-7 days for the eggs to hatch.

The warmer the water, the quicker they hatch, though 70F is just about right, for best development. Keep the water pristine, though, as babies are super sensitive to ammonia, nitrites,and nitrates.

Babies should be fed often, but sparingly, with frequent water changes to minimize the impact frequent feedings has on water quality.

I generally try to feed my fry 5x per day. Boiled egg yolks mashed with tank water is an excellent food for them, as are the little bits of free-floating algae that make "green water."

As they get bigger, add in daphnia and baby brine shrimp, and reduce feedings to 2x/day. Once they are too big to fit inside their parents' mouths, it is safe to put them back with mom and dad.
All you have to do is put them in vinegar and nature will do the rest.

If it is a small goldfish, it will physically fit in something that small. But, it will not live very long in it. If you wish to keep goldfish alive, you need at least ten gallons of water for each goldfish along with a good filter and a heater to keep the water temperature stable. With proper care goldfish can easily live 15+ years.

Is it possible for a goldfish to only have one baby?

Well, when goldfish spawn they lay thousands upon thousands of eggs. The male goldfish then sprays a cloud of milt which fertilises the eggs. For a goldfish to only lay one egg which, somehow triggers a male goldfish to release a cloud of milt, is highly unlikely. Truthfully, it is the person breeding the goldfish who chooses how many fish they are willing to raise. Technically, they could choose to only keep 1 goldfish fry but realistically they would not be willing to throw away the lives of so many baby goldfish fry.
