unfortunately too many beginners find that goldfish are the best starter fish for any tank. the reason for this is that goldfish need larger tanks due to the amount of ammonia that disperse into the water. you would never suspect them to do such a thing, but it happens ALOT. my teacher received a gift from one of my classmates the day before winter break for schools, and it was about a 1-3 gallon tank with an inch long goldfish in it. the poor thing has nowhere to swim and is likely to die in the next month or so unless he upgrades to something bigger. please dont make this mistake.
