Tropical Fish

[trout_pout]

Today I was thinking about either getting a seahorse or a clownfish but as i saw the amount needed for them I am once again stuck.
I am looking for fish which are - quite hardy, easy to breed, beautiful (nice to watch, nice in colour) due to I am a beginner. I only noticed some head and tail light tetras in the pet store, they look quite boring but I would like to hear some info about them if anyone has owned one. I am on the lookout for some green terriors (if that's what they are called)
I don't know what sort of tanks these fish need to be in, If anyone could help me with the basis, I would be very greatful. Thank-you

Livebearers like platys and guppies are easy to breed and come in lots of bright colors so there nice to look at too. I don't know what size tank you have, but I have a 29 platy tank and I really enjoy it and it's pretty low maintenance.

Yup I would definitely recommend freshwater fish if you are new. I love the beauty of saltwater fish, but I need another job and a lot more experience before I decide to keep them.

Livebearers and tetras are always good first fish.
