You know, the real basic fish that most people have kept, but you never have.

For me...tiger barbs, zebra danios, blue gouramis, harlequin rasboras. I still don't know how I've managed to be in the hobby for almost 30 years without ever owning a tiger barb.
 
a common pleco, besides neons (no other terta), jack dempsey, and danios.
 
I thought this would be easy, but my mind is blank. Tiger Barbs are one of my favorites, and i always cycle my tanks with zebra danios. Ive never kept any dwarf gouramis, i guess they are kinda common.
 
I've never kept tinfoil barbs or the freshwater angelfish.
 
Clown Loaches,but I will one day.
 
Hmm forgot about blood parrots, I never kept one of them, or a flowerhorn for that matter. I've also never had any African lake cichlids, or platies other than one I got in a batch of feeders (looked like a variatus anyway).
 
africans, and I haven't kept an angel since I was like, 8, though I'd like to have some angels at some point
