Oh really now? I'll get you pictures! Even if I don't have to prove myself to you just because some mean guy comes up and insults me... but i'll get them alright... since I don't have a digital camera, i'll go get them developed and I'll send them to you as soon as I can
It seems like you get somehitng new everyday.... Well hey, at least we can all understand what your typing now. And how did you ever come up with a midas, green terror, and two goldfish in a 55 gallon tank?
I came up w/ them because I had gotten a library book on Aquarium Fish, and I looked through the whole book to find some fish I liked... I discarded many, and I kept the peaceful, omnivorous types. I didn't want goldfish until my mom is like "You started with goldfish and now you want cichlids?!"
a midas is peaceful? You should just get some convicts or something like that. But not a midas. If you really want one, you keep it alone. you could get away with a 55 but 75 is minimum.

Even you have all those fishes in that tank, will eventually left with one. Guessssss....which fish? That's right....IT IS MIDAS. Here is candy for you as reward.
Joking aside, please research on the fish before you even decided on getting them. If you don't know about their temperament, ask before even thinking to put them together. 55g tank is too small for Midas IMO.
OK, this has gotten way off topic. Just to summarize: NO, you shouldn't keep cichlids with goldfish. Temperature and temperament differences, plus all of your proposed tanks are too small.
As for the rest, the question of whether or not she also has a 200g tank with 4 oscars is hereby declared moot.
As a great man used to put it "Say goodnight, Gracie."
