The best advice I can give is filtration. The more filtration you have the more time you will spend looking at your fish than cleaning your tank. One other peice of advice, go big.

Fish Kept:
2 Neon Blue Dwarf Gouramis, 3 Pink Glo-Fish, 1 Bala Shark, 1 Blood Red Parrot, 1 Plecostomus (aka. Plecosaurusrex), 1 Swartz's Corydoras Cat, 1 Pictus Cat, 2 Bamboo Shrimp, 1 Marble Angel Fish and 1 Silver Veil Angel Fish.
Corals/Plants:
Various types of resin ornaments and rocks
Tank Size:
75 gallons
Advice:
New tanks, specially the larger sizes take time and leave more room for error. Go to your local fish store and ask questions before you buy, I recommend a local "Mom and Pop" store, not a big chain store that rotate staff faster then the stock in their tanks. Get advise from the "professionals" and follow it. Most of all, have patience, patience, patience, patience, patience, and more patience.
