Advice: If you want a fish GO FOR IT! They are so amazing to have in your living space, and VERY inspirational and relaxing. You can design your tank to fit YOU!! When picking out a tank don't fill it up with fish too quickly, pick out your fish slowly and make sure you don't put any specific breed of fish with others they wont get along with! Just basic aquarium knowledge really, and most of all ENJOY IT!!!!
