Welcome to the forum. :)
As has been said, a 50l tank is too small even for fancy goldies who get to around 6", they need a big tank with good filtering (they are very messy), usually around 150l for one plus 50l for each extra fish.
For commons who get to 12" then it's best to put them in at least a 5' tank to grow and then move to a pond in spring/summer...
