That is a pretty small tank. It would definitely be a nano. There is a whole section here on keeping Nano marine tanks. IMO the tank is not big enough for corals. You could probably put some live sand or crushed coral, live rock and a couple of smaller marine fish like pajama cardinals, or green chromis or some other small fish like that.

Thats around a 10 gallon, maybe less. Corals, yes you can have them, they can fit in almost any size tank (depending on species of course), fish, I'm not so sure, maybe a goby or two.

hi

yes you can keep corals in there but it would have to be gobies for that tank (chromis need at least 25-30gal)so you could NOT add them same with cardinals dont add them

blue neon gobys
hectors gobys
green banded gobys (not sure)


any other suggestions ppl

regards scott

hectors gobys

Not much in the way of suggestions (other than critters cooler than fish, like shrimp and hermit crabs).

But I really don't think a Hectors goby would be happy in that small a tank...
