What is the easyest type of fish to breed surrounded by freshwater reservoir no specifics on size or anything basically which one?
Guppies though any of the livebearers mollys, platies and swordtails are prolific breeders.
I would have to say aloud a wild type of guppy, either the guppy proper or the currently popular endlers would have to be fundamentally close if not the easiest.
The fancy guppies are not hard,but are a bit harder. More susceptible to problems.

guppies breed easy as hell
Livebearer - Guppies afterwards Endler's Livebearer
Egg Layer - Convict Cichlid
Mouth Brooder - Oreochromis Mozambique (used to be called Tilapia)
I just have a couple of Convict fish give up lots of fry. No efort on my part.
guppies
usually schooling fish breed the most
guppy, swordtail, molly
they'll breed without you even wanting them to or trying. swordtails are nice because you can efficiently tell male from female.
Guppies, swordtails or convict cichlids.
Answers: Like I answer to the other asker before you the easiest fish to breed and suit well for beginner is surely livebearer such as guppy,sworrdtail,platy,molly and others.
Since livebearer including guppy,platy,molly,swordtail and other are grown at 3-4 month (can start to mate among themselve).
And yield up to 40 young and sometime over 80 young every 3-4 weeks,in a year so I don't think there will be any difficulty to breed them.
And yet they are one of the most hardy fish (can survive efficiently in your tank) so this make them profitable as they may not die easily.
I propose you to put 3-4 female with 1-2 male contained by a separate tank (breeding tank) to avoid the fry being eaten and more youthful will survive.
Keep the guppies or other livebearers in a well planted tank and ensure the river is not too soft,I believe in a couple of week you will have a lot of infant fishes.
The pregnant female guppy can be noticed by the appearance of gravid spot at it body near its anus and their stomach will grow bigger year by day (depend on the amount of young they are carrying).
Here are some of the normal situation you will notice when your livebearer including molly,guppy,platy,swordtail and other are in labour.
You can see :
1.the hold just beneath its anus open became more bigger or obvious.The place where on earth eventually the fry will come out.
2.The fish will tend to hide in the area that hold less fish such as cornered of the tank.
3.Always go close the filter ,aquatic plant,wood.stone or rock to get shelter for its fry.
4.Some may also not even eat past giving and during birth process.
Important :
Beware the livebearer such as guppy,molly,platy,swordtail and others may even eat or consume their young.
Try to separate the mother and fry using a breeding tank/trap.

Tips:
Feed the feminine with mix diet of food like food pellet,worm and supplement with green food and vitamins to procure more yield or fry.
TTIPS ON RAISING NEWBORN FRY:
Feed the newborn fry with mix diet consisting of :
1.micro pellet/flake fish food,
2.daphnia
3.mosquito larvae
4.egg yolk.
5.microworm.
Hope my answer do sustain you.
Once in a while you can feed it with some vitamins supplement to enhance its colour and growth.
Hope the information may solve your question.And good luck with the breeding project.
categorically guppies or the common goldfish
