killifish come in a plethora of different colors.
and not a lot of people keep them.
other stuff you may be interested in are:
discus
cardinal/neon tetras
gold barbs
emperor tetras
mollys
platys
swordtails
bettas
gouramis
german blue rams
kribensis cichlids
african cichlids (there are far to many to count you'd have to do a little research to find which ones you want)
and depending how big the tank is you can do central/south american cichlids too.

appears like my tank! My temp is seventy six tiers fahrenheit. I even have distinctive faux vegetation and embellishes that the fish can swim by way of and cover in. I even have: neon tetras (very much less high priced yet captivating) a million algae eater (or pleco) white cloud tetras (additionally very much less high priced and occasional maintenance) black neon tetras zebra danios 4 mollies (3 women persons, a million male-greater intense maintenance and procreate an undesirable lot lol) a million albino catfish-this and the algae eater shop the tank clean. glide the luggage with the sunshine on interior the tank for 5-10 minutes. upload water out of your tank a litle at a time and then in simple terms turn it the different way up so as that they are interior the water. all the above fish consume widely used tropical flake foodstuff, in spite of the undeniable fact that i want to advise algae wafers for the algae eater/catfish. Any questions touch me!

look at neon dwarf rainbowfish or some tetras, glow lights are nice and hardy. corydoras are not colorful but are the clowns of the fish world but make sure you get at least 4 or 6. it really depends on the size of your tank. will it be planted? if not what will be in it? have you cycled the tank? look into fishless cycling. it saves hurting fish and if you don't cycle it will kill all of your fish. do you know about water changes and testing the water for ph nitrates ammonia etc?
do a lot of research with fish compatibility, it will pay off in the end.
please do more research before adding fish you will be glad you did.

A good fish with a lot of personality is the Kuhli Loach. They are very active when kept in groups of 3 or more. Their stripes are pale orange and black. There are not really colorful fish that nobody has. Killifish are very colorful, but they can be difficult to find because most pet stores do not have them. If you want Killifish, this site is a good place to order them, http://www.killi.net/. By the way, it is "vibrant" not "vibrate".

It really depends on how big your tank is. You really don't want to overpopulate as this will lead to a dirtier tank and fish illnesses - Gouramis are very pretty and quite hardy and Tetras are very nice too.

You have to decide whether you want to go with the comunity fish or you want to go with the loner type. Depending on the capacity of your tank you may be able to get both kinds, cuz if they have room they won't bother each other.
Here's some ideas:
Get only one male Beta (two of them will kill each other)
get some funny looking angel fish
Barbs are good too... they have a lot of kinds, I like the Tiger Barbs
Neon Tetra if you like color... and you might want to invest in black light for that it looks awesome
or the gel-colored tetras, they look like they're fake, hahaha
Or you might like some Coy fish -
Get a Plecostamus to eat all them algies, they're bottom feeders...
or you can get some big fish, carp, or catfish..
I hope I gave you some ideas
Good luck!

Platys are a great community fish that come in lots of vibrant colors. You could get a mix of different color variations and have a very colorful aquarium.

Swordtails are nice---bright orange and very active. Neons are always colorful. They have all types of Gouramis in many different colores too!

Can either try Neon Tretra or Guppies. They have a wide range of variety to satisfy your needs and they are non aggressive.
Good Luck and Enjoy!!
