Help! Moving with goldfish

Can my goldfish survive a three day car ride? I need to drive from Delaware to Arizona this friday with my dogs and pet goldfish. I have 4 large fancy tails and I have no idea if they will survive in a fish carrier or not. Help!!!

Goldfish are quite hardy. Make sure they get some sunshine. Keeping the fishbowl as low as possible will also help. Also make sure air can get in. Have a good trip.

Yes they can actually, these fish (goldfish especially) can live in a bowl its entire life without any filtration.  The only things to be aware of are temperature rises and falls, if it get hot too fast or cold to quickly, it can get ich, or just the temperature changes will cook, or freeze the fish.  But i do believe they can survive the trip, just monitor them closely.
