    I feel bad for SharkBait... every fish he sees that he really wants WON'T go in a 10 gallon! The good thing is that this contest will give him the experience to know his limits and do what's best for the critters.

    How about something really off the wall.. like a baby snowflake eel? Granted by the time the nano contest is over he'll need a larger house, but thats something not too often seen and will definately deter the wants to add more fish (aka lunch).

    Just thinking out loud....
    Every electronic device is manufactured with smoke stored deep inside... only a true genius can find a way to set it free.

    I vote for the clown fish also. They are hardy and will do well in the 10g nano and a larger tank if you wish to move them to a larger tank later on. I have a pair of true percs. in my nano.

    Actually, if you decide you want a predator like an eel I would recommend a Fresh Water Moray Eel, slowly acclimated to the marine environment. It will stay small enough for you to keep in that aquarium for as long as it lives and it is as fun as one of his big cousins. Just make sure you get the right species if you decide to go this way since not all freshwater eels can live in both fresh water and salt water.

    This is the scientific name of the Eel I'm talking about:

    Gymnothorax tile


    I've had mine in a 60g reef environment for about 5 months and it is thriving. It eats thawed frozen shiners cut in half and live ghost shrimp. I have not had a problem with it consuming any fish or shrimp that are larger than its head so you can still get the clown or damsel that you like.

    Good luck !
