Well I dnt mind to much on the price of the tank because whe I have bought everything i am saving the rest so a planted african tank? Would look good but also would like to breed ad get some money:) any ideas of wt to breed?

hi everyone i am selling my tank fish etc because i dont realy want such a big tank and i was thinking of going marine but a bit expensive and at my age i cant supple the money if anything goes wrong..... so my idea for a tank is that i get a tank that looks good and comes with filter lights etc built in any ideas probable around 3-4foot? i am probabale going to make it a planted tank so anything i need to knw ? some good plants grow fast easy to mantain etc? i am not going to fully plant it i will plant it as much as i need to untill it looks good i will start with ABOUT half planted with baby plants maybe but would prefer medium sized ones or something that grows fast. i am also wanting to gain some money so i was thinking about breeding discus can they go in a semi planted tank? what do i need for them a cone etc? so tell me wat u think or wat i should buy/get tips etc
