so i have a 55G spare, and im thinking of putting 3 goldfish into this aquarium, would that work??? and if it would would it be overstocked, and is there any other types of fish/snail/bottem feeder i could also add?

Yes the 55 will be a good size, I have heard that goldfish eat snails

3-4 mystery snails could be good, or one big apple snail. goldfish will eat snails, but they prefer them to be snack size.

i've had no problem with mystery snails in my 50g. they're way too large for the goldfish to bother, and they keep the tank sparkling clean.
