Live bearers are the quickest and easiest to breed and will usually breed more than you want or can contain. Next are Convicts, Texas Cichlid, Chocolate Cichlids and Jack Dempseys. Most African Cichlids breed easily as well. Betta fish can be more difficult since you have to wait for the male to begin building a bubble nest, then find a female with the faint horizontal lines, introduce the two, hope she doesn't die, then remove her once the eggs are being moved to the bubbles by the male. Zebra danios are also easy to breed, and so are White Cloud Mountain Minnows.

There are many species of Freshwater Fish that are bred commercially in ponds. In tropical climes the fish will be mainly tropical and in cooler climates they will be coldwater species. They vary from Tillapia through to Goldfish and Bassa and many others in Asia and the far East. Then there are Trout and Salmon and Murray Cod amongst many others in Australasia. The US of A will also have many species of fish being bred commercially in ponds.

I would say guppies, mollies, platys, swordtails and such are the easiest...they are all livebearers and will breed constantly once they are old enough....
