Cherry red shrimp (Neocaridina heteropoda) are tropical in their requirements and should be kept between 65F and 75F. Goldfish are coldwater fish and should be kept around 55F to 65F. That makes them incompatible as far as water conditions goes. Add to that the fact that goldfish will eat shrimps and rip off their legs, then you will understand that it is not recommended to house Cherry red shrimps with any kind of goldfish.

What is better putting 20 goldfish into a ten gallon tank or buying ten 1 gallon fish bowls and putting two fish in each?

Neither! A goldfish needs at LEAST 20 gallons of space, adding 10 gallons for each additional goldfish. For example, I own 2 fantail goldfish, and they live happily in a 30 gallon tank. The reason goldfish die so quickly is because people put them in such small containers, and their bodies stop growing but their organs keep expanding. Goldfish are able to live over 10 years, if cared for properly.

What are the top ten goldfish?

Out of all the different varieties of goldfish the top pond goldfish would be the koi, the top goldfish probably of all time would be the common goldfish, and the top fancy goldfish would be the Oranda. The second most common pond goldfish would probably be the Comet, the second for the common varieties of goldfish would be the Fantail, and the second most popular fancy goldfish would be the ryukin. The third most common pond goldfish would be the Shubunkin, the third for the common goldfish varieties would be the black moor(although this technically counts as "fancy"), and the third for the fancy goldfish would probably be the Celestial and the Ranchu.To make this data more clear I've organized it into a list:1. Common goldfish2. Koi3. Oranda4. Fantail5. Comet6. Ryukin7. Black Moor8. Shubunkin9. Celestial10. Ranchu

You cannot mix goldfish and bettas. Personalities aside, Goldfish are coldwater fish and Bettas are tropical.
