Hi and welcome to the forum

Pop over to the coldwater section and read the pinned topics there about the amount of space coldwater fish need

Lots of friendly and helpful people on here so ask away

I keep reading that you would need a larger tank for most types of goldfish as small tanks lead to stunted growth...

small gf and fancy gf need a minimum of ten gallons per fish when small. after a few months the need for more space grows as gf are very messy fish. the filtration also needs to be good to keep the tank clean.
for a 7 gallon tank you will only be able to keep some white cloud minnows. i dont know about any other type of cold water fish though so maybe there is something alternative you can get. i have white cloud mountain minnows and they are very colouful fish. you could maybe get about 7 of them in your tank and with good filtration maybe 10.

Be warned though that white clouds breed like wild fire
