The Right Fish For Me?

[Sean W.]

Hey, my first post.. but 8th forum ( first fish forum) i have joined.

i have had fish tanks since as long as i can remember, so taking care of fish is nothing new to me.

But, i want to choose some new fish for my fish tank. its a community tank, so everyone goes good with each other, i dont remember all the names but we have, some neons, clown loach, an angle fish thats as big as my entire hand ( fingers and all, our biggest fish ) we have a dwarf something some bottom feeders. its a 45 gallon tank. so its a pretty good size..

soo my question to you isss, im color blind, i can only see extremely vibrant colors, red blue and yellow are really the only colors i can see. all the fish we have aren't color full, i cant even see them sometimes, i have said to my mom before " where are all the fish " and she said they are right there in front of you", and i cant see them until she points them out.
so, what is an extremely vibrant colorful beautiful community freshwater fish?

I wanted to start a salt water tank just so i could have some of the beautiful fish that freshwater just dont offer, but i dont have the patience or knowledge to take care of a salt water tank.. was hoping that some of you could help me with my delema.. thanks...

People often choose african cichlids like mbuna for their colours, theres quite a few vivid yellows and blues (plus alot of other colours ). Not as hard as marines or expensive I would have thought, but they're not my cup of tea but still might be worth looking into.

Livebearers are often nice vibrant colours, Platies or Swordtails would be good for your tank and they come in many colours, red, orange, yellow, white etc.

And the other fish would take care of fry if you had male and female
