Goldfish are really for cold water, so I wouldn't put them in with the others, which are tropical/warm water fish.

You could have 3-4 Panda Corydoras and 7 Guppies happily in a tank no less than 15 gallons in volume...or 2 foot by 15 inches by 15 inches.

Yeah, I agree with nick. The guppies need warmer water than the goldfish. I think if it's only one goldfish and 7 guppies, a 10gallon should be fine. Still depending on how big the goldfish is and if you're planning for more fish. Perhaps a hang-on back filter for filteration.
