A one gallon tank? That is way, way too small for a goldfish, let alone a goldfish and a sucker fish. Goldfish need at least ten gallons to themselves. The goldfish probably suffocated to death or died from its own ammonia/wastes. Please either have you or your friend/sister do research next time you get a fish. Good care will result in a long living happy goldfish. Do you even know what type of sucker fish it was? A lot of sucker fish require warmer temperatures and goldfish need cooler temperatures so the mixture won’t work.
