5.5 gal. livestock

[Guest anthony]

hi everyone, i recently setup my 5.5 gallon nano reef. i have a 2 1/2 inch sand bed, 100% live rock, emerald crab, 3 hermits, 3 nassaurius snails. the params are still a little high but they are getting there. i need some help coming up with a good fish or two to put in such a small tank. i want something reef-safe and small enough to live happily in a 5.5 gallon tank, any suggestions?

There are several small gobys that would do well in a tank that size. Perhaps a goby/shrimp combo might work well.

 

Perhaps a yahshia goby: http://www.marinecenter.com/fish/gobies/yashiagoby/

 

Here is a wwm page detailing some of the goby/shrimp pairs that are available:

watchman goby, lots of personality, cool looking, get some pods...

yea, i was looking at those pistol shrimp/ goby combo the other day. yellow watchmen are cool too, i do have tons of pods! thats cool though because, i thought they needed like 20 gallons or something.
