All fish can lay eggs without a male present. The male and female fish do not meet during reproduction. Eggs are fertilized only once they leave the female's body. The male will come later to fertilize them with his sperm after the female fish has laid the eggs and left

What should you do if your goldfish is pregnant and you have a small tank?
Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly pregnant. If you think your goldfish is pregnant than she is just getting ready to spawn by becoming full of eggs. Unless there is a male goldfish present the eggs will be unfertilized and will not hatch into baby goldfish fry. Your female goldfish will soon lay her eggs, and if no further action is taken, she will then eat them. As for the small tank, I would really recommend moving her into a bigger one.

How long does a goldfish stay with its mother?
Goldfish are not livebearers so they are never truly prenant. After the female goldfish lays her eggs a nearby male will release a cloud of milt and fertilize the eggs. After this if the mother and father goldfish are not removed from the eggs the eggs will be eaten. So in short a goldfish does not and should not stay with its mother.
