new fish breeder here

I must say that the easyest fish to breed are guppys. I have some, and they already had babies to times. You don't even have to do anything....they do all the work. I tryed with bettas...no succes...but with guppy....so easy. First time, i just brought them home, some males and females, and after a few days i saw the new babies. I was amezed. And they are easy to care. So, for the begining, i would say that guppy are the best.

hi benny, i haven't had an aquarium since i was a child (and then it was basically just me taking over the care of the family tank) although i would love to have one. guppies are supposed to be very easy to breed and so are mollies, i think.

That is equivalent to about 14 US gallons so it is a small tank. There are other fish that could be spawned in that size of a tank as long as they were the only fish in the tank. Guppies and platties are two live bearing fish that will work. The males have a modified anal fish that is pointed and round in the females. The males do not get this pointed fin until they are mature so many people think that their females have turned into males whereas they only matured into adult males. If you do decide to get live bearing fish make sure to get two or three females for each male. If you get the same or more males than females, the males will not let the females rest, they will constantly be trying to mate with the females. What is the "foot print of the tank? that is ow long, how wide and how tall is the tank? If it is not tall but rather shallow with a large "foot print", you could get a pair of dwarf cichlids like the rams. Another fish that I have spawned in small tanks are the paradise fish (related to the Betta) but you do not have to remove the females (or at least I did not). Another thought are the small danios as long as you have plenty of fine leaved plants for the eggs to hide in you might be able to breed these fish. I would recommend getting live aquatic plants because the plants will have foods for the baby fish when they hatch and will also be a cover for the babies to hide in. Keep us informed as to what kind of fish that you decide on breeding. And also consider what you will do with the babies once they are large enough to be moved to another tank, you do not want to overcrowd your tank. It will lower their resistance to diseases and you might loose the whole tank full of fish.
