The very smallest I would suggest would be a 20 gallon. A long style version of the 20 would also be better than the more common 20 "regular".

An adult oranda will need a 40 gallon tank as a minimum. Oranda's get fairly large, 6-8" and require a lot of room.

No. right it is why a million. Your tank is ALREADY overstocked Goldfish are exceptionally gross fish, and want a great style of area, efficient filtration and universal water differences. because of fact they are extremely hardy they could stay to tell the tale (no longer the be conscious "stay to tell the tale" no longer "thrive") in situations that could quickly kill different fish. there are a number of myths surrounding goldfish. in short--goldfish can actual substitute into 8' long and stay to be 12 years. Your goldfish will possibly no longer enhance longer than 4' and stay for approximately 4 years max. 2. Goldfish have different standards than Cory Cats Goldfish are coldwater fish, and do perfect in cooler temperatures (low 70's and 60's) provided the ponds do no longer freeze thoroughly they may well be overwintered. Cory Cats are tropical fish and want water temperatures interior the mid 70's to do properly. You do the maths. 3. Cory Cats are social conserving a single cory is cruel. you may shop a minimum of three (six is extra suited) for them to sense comfortable. Your tank can not help that bioload. Please do somewhat study on the fish till now you get them, and rearrange your setup as a effect. Your fish would be in good shape, enhance bigger, have brighter hues and demonstrate extra organic behaviors.

The minimum would definitely be a 5 gallon tank. And if so, you should only put two at the most with no other fish no matter how big or small. I have learned this from years of experience with both aquariums and orandas.

Goldfish MUST have at least ten gallons for every fish in the tank. The more the better.
Long-tailed goldfish such as comets or shubunkins should be given double that, however, because of their length.

they get up to 10", can you imagine that in a 2.5 gallon or even a 5gallon? not to mention they produce tons of waste like all goldfish. 10gallons for each one is the minimum, 15gallons is really best.
