What fish should I add next

Hi Friends,
I was wondering what species of Marine fish are easy (figurativly speaking) to breed? I'm going to start my 55 gal marine tank soon and probably after a year of getting aquainted with my SW tank I would like to breed some Marine fish. Any suggestions?

Get an anemone crab! They're so cool looking and quite hardy!

Damn...! That is bad... Thanks for the heads up! I'll keep an eye on him. Geesh... And I was gonna get two more to keep him company. I bought him because I read that they were really good in an aquarium community and I needed a cleaning crew.

Did u ask about any complications at ur LFS? Get dwarf hermits if u want clean up... many other types of livestock can benefit even more than an anemone hermit.
