I just wanted to chip in here.. your set up for the fish is okay for now, but basically you will want a 29 gal tank for your gold fish at the smallest as soon as you can get one, and I would always recommend getting a larger tank if you have the option to. As for housing goldfish with other fish from my experience you should only house them with other goldfish, koi, or shubunkin of a similar size. Some people do have luck putting them with other fish, but I would not risk it, most other fish need a heater anyways and a goldfish WILL eat any other fish small enough to fit in it's mouth. Now with water changes it really depends on tank size, amount of occupants, and if you have a proper filter, but most people do water changes of 1/4 to 1/3 of the water every 2 weeks to a month. I hope this was helpful for you, and the best of luck with your fish
