fish for 10 Gallons DSB

[anon9896]

Hi I have a 10 Gallons DSB with
-2 sexy shrimp (will be adding more)
-favia
-some Zoas
-halloween hermit crab
-some algaes
-I have some flat worms (I tried to get rid of em twice with salifert product (no luck always some remaining)
-DSB 5 to 6 inch with 1/2 the water filled with rocks.
-no protein skimmer but I have a fluval with some activated coal.

I'm just wondering if there would be any fish kind enough to live in there and be happy

Really small ones?

With the DSB in the 10 gallon, that space is 6 gallons at best, pico range. Best bet..go with a a goby that doesn't need a lot of swimming room - clown goby or similar small perching fish.

Perhaps - Firefish goby - but mine swims a lot. Royal Gramma - seems pretty stationary most of the time and are recommended for this size, but again, I see mine swim enough that I'd hesitate in tiny tank now. I've also seen clowns in these, but I'm just not seeing how that's good either. And I'm not mister "let's make sure our fish have all the room in the world" either.

Nothing wrong with a shrimp/invert tank!!!

No more than one...and get a screen top. Shallow water will result in carpet surfing.

i'm still hesitating though , I didn'T want any fish and then I was thinking of my 6 line wrass keeping flat worms in check, but again , I don'T see a wrass in there.
If I add any guy's in there they might just attack my copepods.
Thinking of a hector goby but I could just add more crabs too or a couple of fireshrimps (I might actually see them LOL)
My LFS sells mangrove tips I could try and make a mangrove out of the place. I wonder if the mangrove could hurt a small DSB like that. the light i'm using is at 60% ... I could raise it and install a beach chair in front
Joke aside i'm not even considering a clowfish it's WAY too small with rocks everywhere, i'd at least get a fish that can rest on the rocks.
thanks for the advices
