First time round: livebearers (mollies, guppies, platies, swordtails), but I can't remember in what order I bought them. Only a general impression that I must have got too many kinds too quickly.

This time: guppies, platies, corys.

Well when I was like 6 I used to catch Mosquito fish from a creek near our house, study them in a Kritter-Keeper then put them back.

But my 1st real fish in a tank was a VT betta called Charlie. He died last year.

Mine was a stickleback, caught in the pond at the park, lasted about two weeks!

Mine was my Kissing Gourami my aunt gave me. She's still alive today!

It was either a fairground goldfish or a wild caught bream from a local river, it was over 25 years ago so I don't remember which came first!

The goldfish lived forever and ended up in a pond where it produced generations of offspring.
The bream was sadly fished out of the tank by my cat.
Who ate him.
