    a good rule of thumb is 1 inch of fish per 5 gals for salt water. some sort of gobie or blenny. i would say.

    I would do like a 6 line wrasse or a lawnmower blenny. The lawnmower is not colorfull but what it lacks in color it makes up in personality. the 6 line they are pretty and are small fish and reef safe.

    no the crab will fine with the 6 line. six line wrasse do not get that big they are an awesome fish for small tanks so are spotted hawkfish too.

    I have one in my 92 gallon and he is only 3 inches max, they do not grow big. they are quite pretty also with the pretty green tail and the red sttriped body. They are a good addition to a tank in my opinion. I have enjoyed mine.
