I don't know the collective noun for goldfish, but a group of politicians is called either a cover up of politicians or (failing that) a scandal of politicians. A group of lawyers is called a double talk of lawyers. According to Inspector Morse, a group of morticians is referred to as a body.

Oh yeah, a group of accountants seated on a bench is called a bottom line of accountants.

My search revealed that the answer is not disturbing, but it is troubling (as in a troubling of goldfish).

Yes sir, it is a Troubling of Goldfish! I would also accept the answer of a Glint of Goldfish. Your turn!

Glint is a cool term. My next guess would have been a "bowl".

I did not know the answer and had to look it up:

Agatha Raisin is a fictional detective in a series of humorous mystery novels by Marion Chesney using the pseudonym M. C. Beaton. They are published in the U.K. by Constable & Robinson and in the U.S.A. by St. Martins Press.
Raisin has been played by Penelope Keith on BBC Radio 4, and by Ashley Jensen in the television series Agatha Raisin. The pilot aired on Sky 1 in December 2014.[1] A full 8-part series, filmed during 2015, began airing on Sky 1 in June 2016.
