You can have a snail with goldies. I would be careful though. Make sure it's bigger than the goldies mouth, they have a habit of eating anything they can fit in ther mouth.
Not to sound rude but a goldfish should not be in anything smaller than a 20 gallon tank. A fancy goldfish can grow to be at least 9", and a common or comet can get even larger. In order for the goldie to thrive it needs more room.

Tha's good, but try to do it sooner than later. If they are in a small tank too long you could stunt there growth, which can cause internal problems.
