My lil turtle is growing and time to upgrade to a bigger tank. M cousin has a tank more than big enough and I more than welcomed to have it BUT I have to take 2 HUGE goldfish with the tank. Will this be an issue to have two huge goldfish with a lil turtle??????

Probably not, though those goldfish will eventually be lunch.

I think it depends on how old your turtle is, and what kind. Some have had success with introducing turtles to fish at a very young age, resulting in almost life long harmony in the tank. Others have experienced night and day attitude changes, in which one day you wake up and everything in the tank is ripped apart lol. If they are fairly large goldfish and your turtle is only a couple inches (2-4) then it might be a while until they are looked at as a snack.
