That is a subjective question and depends on a persons preferences. I love Discus so I would recommend them to anyone who is expert at keeping fish but I would strongly advise a beginner to start off with a sensible sized tank (about 36"x18"x18") with top glass, a heater/thermostat, a power filter, a thermometer and a light. Then I would suggest the beginner get a book on keeping fish and follow the advice given therein to set up the tank. The easiest fish to keep alive are probably guppies so I would advise you to buy some of them but all fish need basically the same things in captivity. The Neccessities of fishkeeping are a minimum of 1 gallon of water per inch of fish, a cycled filter and a weekly water change of at least 50%.
