Your questions are a little broad to answer effectively. There are lots of fish options...do you want fish only? Fish only with live rock? Reef? Lighting needs will also depend on what kind of setup you want. Try reading this as a starting point, then post questions that it inspires.

I deffinetly want clown fish but I am open to any suggestions about fish for beginners. Are there any plants that certain fish would be good with? Is there any maintinence that is different from freshwater? I definetly want a community tank because it is my first time. I'm not really going to model the tank off of a specific environment.
