Based on the info you have provided, your tank is not yet fully cycled. When it is, your ammonia and nitrite readings should be zero, and you should see nitrate reading. Most importantly, are your fish active and are they eating well? If they are, do nothing except for 25-30% WC every two days. Make sure you treat your tap water with good water conditioner such as Seachem Prime or AquaScience, as recommended by many. Follow the directions on dosage. For filtration, you may consider an OHF or stackable trickle tower. These are preferred over a canister, when you are keeping goldfish. In due time, your tank will be cycled, but do not expect this to happen overnight. Depending on the conditions, this could happen within 7-10 days or sometimes weeks. Just be patient. Hope this helps.

Yes bro! The ranches are eating well and active. Have been listening to some bros' advice to cut down on feeding, water change and dosing Waterlife - Digest Ammonia and Nitrite to cultivate good bacteria. Hopefully the tank will be fully cycle soon.
Thanks everyone for your advice as it is my first time rearing GF, these advices are useful!
