most related cichlids can crossbreed pretty easily. and rtc/tsn hybrids are made in a lab so not really easy or natural.
Many african cichlids can crossbreed. Sometimes naturally.
Most Central Americans can crossbreed. Sometimes naturally. Flowerhorns, Blood Parrots, Rosequeens, Galaxies are all CA hybrids.
Closely related species of livebearers, bettas, discus, angelfish and (supposedly) severums can crossbreed. In fact most standard LFS stock of these guys are hybrids, or descendants thereof.
Any specific reason you're asking? If you are interested in trying it out, I'd suggest going the CA route. With the diverse morphologies, some of the progeny can be very interesting.
Green Texas Cichlids and Convict Cichlids tend to attempt to crossbreed most often. They'll probably be the easiest to use to attempt to crossbreed.

There is a whole thread on cichlid hybrid rules in the hybrid section. Centrals are probably the easiest group to hybrid since they can basically breed with any other central.

If you are inquiring about catfish as well, the common ones are only RTcxTSN and TSNxLeiarius, and most others are rare. http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/f...id-Catfish-Discussion-thread&highlight=hybrid
I'd not describe the catfish hybrid production as done with "little difficulty" but it depends on what you mean.
