Here are all the results with descriptions

a Barb.
As a beginner, you need an easy-to-care for fish who will be happy in a simple tank. Barbs are pretty tolerant of water conditions and they are pretty peaceful with other fish... except slow swimmers with long, trailing fins! Those they take pleasure in attacking. Buy more than one; they like company.

an Ocellaris Clownfish.
Since you are an expert fish handler looking for a challenge, why not try a saltwater tank full of beautiful Ocellaris Clownfish? These orange and white cuties are easy to care for, resilient, and full of personality.

a Danio.
Danios are great beginner, inexpensive fish for small, unheated tanks. There are many varieties, but even a Giant Danio is only 4 inches on average. They love to be together and Zebra Danios mate for life!

an Oscar.
You are not a beginner and you want a predator fish with a big personality? Oscars are aggressive members of the cichlid family who can grow to 18 inches in length, so think a 75-gallon minimum tank with weekly water changes. Do you have that type of dedication? Then oscars are your fish!

a Goldfish.
You want a fishy friend who will be around for a while. If you take good care of the tank and feed it properly, goldfish can live around 15 years. The oldest reported one lived past 30 years old. Maybe you can beat the record!

an Orfe.
You are a prime candidate for a backyard pond full of orfes. Orfes swim in schools near the surface so you can see their beautiful colors (silver, blue, and gold). Get a least five so they can hang out and grow together for the next 15 to 20 years!
