Are you asking how do you maintain 5 goldfish in 20 gallons until you get the 170 up and running? If so, the only option I see other than rehoming 4 of them is to do massive, frequent (i.e. daily) water changes and hope for the best.

I think a 20 gallons is perfectly suitable for the goldfishes short term.

Is there a problem between the bichirs and the dollars ?

I would put the goldfish in the 170 when ready and leave the bichirs and dollars in the 90, then use the 20 as QT/Hospital.
