Try egg layers, cherry barbs, zebra danios and honey gouramis are all easy but do sell for a bit. If i was trying to make a little bit of money go for Kribensis, a very nice and colourful cichlid. Just pick the best condition male and reddest bellied female.

You didn't say how big your new tank is, so it will be very hard to make suggestions. You also didn't say what kind of previous experience you have, so that also makes it hard to recommend something. The easiest fish to raise IMO are convicts. Put a male and female together, and you will almost always get babies. Convicts are not worth anything though. Basically, any fish that is easy to breed is already being bred by a lot of people. If space is limited, you could breed high quality bettas. Of course, you will want to get your breeding stock from a high quality source, so skip the local fish stores and search online for specialty breeders. It is very difficult to make a profit breeding fish, no matter what the species. The next time you post a question, be much more specific and you will get better advice.

What will sell well for you is not the same as what will sell well for me or anyone else really. The best thing for you to do is go to a few local independent pet shops. Explain tot hem that you want to raise for to sell and ask them what fish they would most want to buy from a local breeder. Once you ask a few the best fish for you to breed will become obvious. In my area that fish is angels.

biggest money fish right now that is obtainable is the discus. but if there were anyway you could find any beani's and had a big enough tank. you would make a killing but the chances of getting that is slim to none. so go with discus.

easy to breed = cheap if you want to breed fish that will make you money, they're not going to be easy to breed. how much money are you looking to put into this? what tank size can you have? you'll probably need multiple tanks.
