Yep, endlers: http://nettakvariet.no/galleri/data/517/medium/2138endlers.jpg
platies: http://www.elmersaquarium.com/image_fish/01_Platy_MICKEY_MOUSE.jpg
Those two are pretty small, and you can put a few in a 10gal
The following are larger, reaching 4", and should be kept in 25 gallons or larger:

I used to have oscar fish, and besides their size they are really easy keepers. But they eat live prey so if you have a soft stomach I wouldn't reccomend watching lol. Some other fish I liked to have are orange swordtails they are orange with black swordtails, Their beautiful fish, and easy keepers and breeders. Mollies are very beautiful, especially the leopard mollies. The other fish I am so in love with are The Betta's and contrary to belief their bad attitudes can be adjusted. If you have an aquarium of other fish, they will suit well as long as the other fish are not agressive. All you need to do is ask the pet shop sales person to put your fish in a plastic bag with water of course, and then put the bag in the aquarium, let him float around for a bit and see the other fish, if he flails his gills he is mad lol and ready to fight. Or you can go to wal-mart and buy whats called a breeders tank, it is a small plastic container that clamps to the aquarium, let your betta sit in their for a few days and then it's safe to release the fish into the aquarium with all the others.
But remember fish aren't as easy to care for as people think, you need to make sure the water temp meets their needs, make sure that they have plenty of hiding places. And although people say goldfish and guppies are easy fish but die quickly....that is not true, guppies and goldfish can live a full long life, aslong as you meet their needs, and they happen to be some of the hardest fish to care for.
Your mollies and orange swordtails are live breeders, they do not lay eggs. It will be difficult for you to find those type of fish as most fish lay eggs.

Mollys and plattys if they can be made really happy, other than that guppies are just the best, they dont care about anything kinda like rabbits.
My golden wonder kilis loved to snack on them.

All livebearers are easy breeders.
This consists of the guppies, mollies, swordtails, platies, and endler's livebearers.
Egglayers however are a little tougher since they need certain weather conditions.

I bred Sword Tails. They were pretty easy. Although I heard that Swords can get up to 3 in long. Mine never did and I bred them for 5 yrs. Platies and Mollies would be easy also.
