Will fancy goldfish be ok in a tropical tank?
 
Not only are they coldwater fish but they have very heavy bio-loads, produce alot of ammonia, need to be fed sinking pellets as feeding them from the surface allows them to swallow too much air which can cause swim bladder issues, and the list goes on. So as you see they are not at all a suitable tank mate for tropical fish.
