I am only guessing here, but is sound a bit like shock from such a big water change, could be a big difference in the temperature of the water you added.

why did you change all of the water ?
Did you match the temp and ph ?
Did you touch the filters at all ?

why such a big water change? have you added a safe gaurd water liquid that makes tap water safe for fish?
what are your water stats.
i wouldnt do another water change as thats probably why the other fish died in the first place, hun.

u really shouldnt add goldfish to a tropical tank, i had done that and mine died in 3 hrs even with putting them in the water and letting them get use to the temperature for about 20 mins. and always dont do a full water change as you have to make sure you match all the water stats, i always do a 10-40% water change.
