Gonna say no. goldfish = jaguar snack

 

[josue25]

what about the koi and the jag

 

[Kanta]

Same Thing sir. Jags are mean fish with teeth. And koi and goldfish are cold water fish. Jags are tropical and need at least a 75g as well

 

[josue25]

the jag and the koi and goldfish are the same size is that any better.?

 

[Amphilophus88]

Depends on the size of the koi maybe the jag won't attack if it is a decent sized koi.
But it really is just a bad combination anyways, it is better to try some other cichlids.

 

[Rayshot1]

not sure how this would even be possible as the koi likes it around 60 degrees ..and the koi around 80 degrees..

Koi and goldfish are asian and jag is american, the habitat is different so the water parameters. Jag is a CA and needs a water temperatuure around 28 degrees with a PH around 7.0 whereas others more colder and higher ph. Even the size, Jag will try to kill them no matter how big the goldfish and koi are.

if the Koi are bigger it will be fine but you will need a very big tank koi get over 2' if i were you id make a pond for koi and get more Cichlids to go with the jag like Festae,Salvini,Green Terror,Herichthys Carpintis Escondido

Keep the Jag alone in the tank.
