If you're grilling, you want something firm. If you're frying, it doesn't matter as much.

You probably know this already but for God's sake, do not overcook the tuna. Rare to medium rare.

And if per chance you use red fish, cut out the blood line. It's unappetizing and it looks gross. If you're serving it to people, they won't like how it looks.

I hate when people serve red fish without removing the bloodline. No one wants to eat brown fish.

This is an important part of it.

Tikin Xic

Tikin Xic, pronounced "teekeen sheek" in Yucatec Mayan and meaning "dry fish", is a fish dish prepared in the Meso-American style. The fish is prepared whole then marinated with adobo de achiote[1] and sour oranges then wrapped in a banana leaf and cooked in an earth oven beneath a wood fire.

Wiki

A good one

This method is so organic that even the spelling of the name varies greatly but the essence is achiote and sour Orange Something .

We eat that style of fish when we go to Isla Mujeres. It's so good.

I like either a blackened seasoning or a Mexican seasoning with cumin and chili powder. I use tilapia a lot because it's cheap and the filets cut up perfectly for tacos.

I usually wing it with the sauce - usually some combination of sour cream, mayo, onion, lime juice, sriracha sauce, and salt/pepper. I often put some crispy slaw on the taco, but occasionally, I put salsa on it, too.

Quickie lunch version:

Open can of albacore tuna and drain
Put some tuna and cabbage on corn tortilla
Add some pico and Caesar or Greek yogurt dressing so it’s not too dry

Probably not as complicated or good as what you’re looking to do, but simple and delicious version
