Can anyone give me a list saltwater fish that i can breed?

[Katelyn]

In order from easiest to hardest to breed. How much money would it cost? And what size tank would they need? Any suggestions on food?
I have never had a saltwater tank before so how do make the tank saltwater? All other tips would be appreciated!
Also if all your going to say is that your not going to make much money don't answer!!
I am not going to breed them for a while but I was wondering ahead of time!

If you never had saltwater fish then dont really come into the hobby expecting to be a breeder. Saltwater fish are hard for most beginners as is.

You will need plenty of research before even buying saltwater fish. Saltwater is more complexed than add water and salt mix.

You will need to learn about a hydrometer and specific gravity, need some good water such as from an RO/DI filter.

You will need to make sure the ph is in the 8.0-8.3 range.

Again clownfish are very common to breed in a home aquarium but even if they do pair up. It is very common to have to wait 2-5 years before they will breed.

This question is like what we get also on Books and Authors, "Where can I find a publisher for my book? I haven't written it yet."
As the first two posters said, saltwater is not exactly easy for even moderate hobbyist. Only after a few years in the hobby would I even begin to think about trying to bred.
Clownfish are usually the easiest, though, in a hobby where nothing is really easy. having alarge established tank will go forward in obtaining this. You also will need expertise in keeping anemones.
Here is a site that tells about how to set up a tank, a salt water tank.

If you've never kept saltwater fish before then I'd put breeding aside for now. Breeding fish does require a fair amount of fishkeeping experience and also a good understanding of the species involved. It isn't just a simple matter of setting up a tank and expecting them to breed. The hardest part of breeding marine fish is maintaining a constant supply of microscopic food for the fry.

Marine fish can also take a very long time to breed. When I first bred Common clownfish I had to obtain a pair that was approaching six-years old (with no previous spawning history) and even then it took another six months before I had any success.

Profit is not a word that should be used in any aspect of fishkeeping or breeding, and nor should breeding be got into lightly. Here is a list of species that have been bred in captivity (in no particular order of difficulty). There may be one or two species missing however.

Common clownfish (Amphiprion ocellaris)
Percula clownfish (Amphiprion percula)
Pink skunk clownfish (Amphiprion perideraion)
Maroon clownfish (Premnas bicolor)
Green chromis (Chromis viridis)
Purple dottyback (Pseudochromis fridmani)
Yellow watchman goby (Cryptocentrus cinctus)
Lemon goby (Gobiodon okinawae)
Catalina goby (Lythrypnus dalli)
Yellowtail damselfish (Chrysiptera parasema)
Royal gramma (Gramma loreto)
Bangaii cardinalfish (Pterapogon kauderni)
Pajama cardinalfish (Sphaeramia nematoptera)
Flame angelfish (Centropyge loricula)
Other pseudochromis species.

If you need anymore info then feel free to send me an e-mail.

I agree with BC-Aquatics and Pleccy. Saltwater aquarium are absolutely wonderful. But you need to be an avid learner and have the time and dedication to maintain one of these. Breeding is definitely another story. I have not had much success with breeding salties. My suggestion: do lots of Research, learn proper care of the tank, maintain the tank for a while before adding any fish, and have a good understanding of the fish BEFORE you add them. Also keep in mind that the fish you put in need to be compatible with each other and even sometimes within the same species you must keep fish separate or cannot keep these fish because they get to a very large size. Good luck! (Personal note: I gave up on a saltwater aquarium because I did not have the time needed, I went with an easy combo of freshwater fish. I hope you have better success!)
Also, I don't know of a list I could give you and there are many foods on the market depending on what kind of fish you have. Do your Research! (=
