can 3 white clouds go with 1 fantail goldfish?

[guppy_man]

ive got 3 white clouds that are in my 20 gal but its a bit over stocked so i was thinking i bought my fantail from the pet store and there was white clouds in the same tank so would it be ok if i put the minnows with the fantail?

i have kept 10 White clouds with 2 fan tailed goldies for about 8 months now. all the fish happly play together and not once has either gold fish tried to eat the white clouds. I do find how ever that white clouds like to be in bigger groups, maybe get 4 or 5 more.

also fancy goldies require good filtration and 10 gals each imo

It depends how big the fan tail is. If the fan tail is big enough to fit the WCMM in his mouth then you'll probably find them disappear one by one like I did.
