Platies, because they are some of the few livebearers I don't dispise.

And "Sailfins" are a type of molly.

Platy,

Because I love mine.

In addition, TFH says that Endlers are guppies. I have no idea if this is right or wrong, but that is an explicit statement in their latest issue.

I'm particularly fond of platies. They were one of my first fist, come in a variety of colors, peaceful, active, and just seem to me to look like a 'typical' fish

Swordtail

Tough call between the colorful Guppies and Swordtails. But I have to go with Swords because they are larger in size and easier for my kids(4 yrs & 1 yr) to view.
