I’m thinking about doing a 20g AIO JBJ tank in my office. Trying to figure out equipment I would need to buy.

I’m thinking for livestock I’d do 2 clown fish, some sort of goby, and either a smaller wrasse like a blue assessor or a purple fire fish. For cleanup crew I was thinking a couple Astoria snails, a couple nassarius snails, and a cleaner shrimp.

I would just do softies since it is an office tank and I won’t be able to give it the time I can my home reef tank. What kind of flow(if any) should I have for softies. I think the return pump will produce decent flow but I figured the coral might like some variable flow with a wave pump.
I’m leaning towards AI or Kessil for my light, but I’m not sure which one to get. Any input would be appreciated.
I want to make this tank as low maintenance as possible with just 20% water changes every other week I can knock out in my lunch break and any other equipment maintenance.

A healthy microbiome can go a long way in biological filtration and helping with maintenance so use live rock
