You can't keep them in a twenty gallon tank, it is far too small. Therefore, I won't give you an answer unless you have another tank to accomodate them (if there are others than those in your sig).

Black widows are not good for cycling a tank, as they are fragile. Also, they need to be kept in groups, and a 20 gallon tank might not be enough.

4 goldfish in a 10 gallon? They are filthy and therefore require a lot of care. Also, they require more oxygen than tropicals and therefore greater surface area. Seeing as how this can be a problem in a small tank, I would suggets finding ways to remedy this.

are you talking about the silver dollars? if so how big is your friend's set up and how many has he got?
silver dollars get pretty big, at least 10cm long and they need to be in groups as they are schooling fish. so like Temp said, 20 gallons is far too small

And silver dollars will eat your plants like they are the last plants on earth.....
