Advice:
Start with smaller easier fish such as tetras and/or goldfish in a small 10 gallon after a while if you take care of those upgrade to a bigger tank with slightly bigger.
if you plan on a planted tank dont get the colored gravel best advice is the flora-active gravel its light and great with aeroation, and feeding the plant roots.
