Grass pickerel!! You will be able to find some small ones in a couple of months online.

Since you are in the Bahamas, just about any predatory tropical species would work
Is it your point to control an anticipated population explosion of goldfish?
If so something as simple as an oscar (or any other semi-predatory cichlid would work (such as Crenicichla) half the size of your current goldfish.

What about a mini monster like a small characin or pike ciclids?

I am of the thought most of the offered suggestions would eat the primary inhabitants
