You could put a school of white clouds in with them.

I've got mosquito fish and red finned minnows in my pond with my goldies. There is also the posibility of keeping native species in your pond.

I keep bass, blue gills and crappies in my pond. But i dont have any goldfish or koi, so i dont know how much that helps. I think that blue gills and crappies would do ok with goldfish or koi. I kept all three with godlfish indoors and had no problems.

goldfish, being carp, should be able to be kept with sportfish in an outdoor setup. keep inmind, alot of sport fish eat other fish. size does matter. bass, blue gills, and crappie would work if the goldfish are too big to be eaten.

Turtles and goldies both grow very large.

For the home aquarium, I would keep goldies in a species only tank.

Other coldwater fish are white clouds, and danios are known to tolerate lower water temperatures too.

All i can say is dont put live breaders (e.g mollies, guppies or sword tails) with goldfish because they nip the gold fishes slim wall off and then they die. trust me i learnt the hard way
