Okay go watch some more river monsters so you can come back and ask more advice on putting fish in your overstocked tank, hmm next week will u want a giant stingray to jam in the 90 gal.
I apologize if your post was suppose to be funny but to me sounds like your mocking the people who are trying to give you advice so you don't waste your time and money.

If you had less and smaller stock. The goliath dosent stay small for long. Ive had mine for 3 months and hes at 6.5 inch and takes around 14 months to hit afoot ( got him at 3 inches). also mines in with a retic ray and seem to be doing fine but all fish are different even the same types of fish.
The GATF's get monsterous like everyone else said. We have one in the store right now and he has grown over over an inch in the last month alone. We had a guy special order one for a 720 gallon, but that fish went straight in, and even so he is going to have to uprade from that. They are no small fish and the one we have is always on the move, he never sits still. These fish need alot of space, and I mean alot of space if they are to be kept in an aqaurium.
as far as tank size, yes in the future you will certainly need a much much larger tank, but a GATF at 4 inches is very small and i believe would do fine in a tank your size for maybe up to a year .... Goliaths, in my aquarium experience, do not swim as much as one would think ... they do cruise at times and are very fast, but the problem with a tank too small or too cluttered is them panicking or getting scared and slamming into walls and driftwood, thus hurting themselves, often quite badly .... my immediate problem with a 4 inch GATF is that the datnoid and/or shovelnose will eat him ... Datnoids have a huge mouth, and the shovelnose will grow so fast that at some point he will outpace the tiger, if not immediatly, and eat him
