Listen the answer is no you cannot do that even temporarily especially with the risk of the 5ft tank being delayed at all. I have only seen a coral beauty in a 29 gallon once which is bigger than your tank and it was dime sized and in a month tripled in size and beat up its tankmates. So that wad a 29g the answer for you is no.
Unrelated, but my tank will be a 4 foot tank that’s 48”x24”x22” (120cm by 60cm by 55cm). Will two Marine Bettas, two clowns (Ocellaris), three PJ Cardinals, three Chrysiptera (ex: Azure damsels) damsels, 2 Flame Hawks, 1-2 Matted Filefish and a dwarf angel or butterfly be too much of a bioload? Would that stress out the fish?
I think there's a lot of confusion in this thread.
The tank is a 60cm cube. This is 24" x 24" x 24" - or 60 gallons.
IMO, a Coral Beauty will be fine in a 60 cube (as long as there are no conspecifics). My Potters was fine in a 30" tank.
I'm a big believer as long as u keep up with weekly waterchanges yo can have as many fish as u like (within reason ofc) like I do weekly water changes on my tank I have 2 occy clowns a dwarf CB ovs lol a blood red fire shrimp 3 dwarf red hermits 2 nassarus snails a ton of copepods and a tiny brittle starfish and I just added a pom pom crab so plenty of cuc to clean up the waste, I have a canister filter that's rated for a tank 5x bigger than mine and plenty of surface agitation as I said the fish do fine when the angel gets moved I want a goby and shrimp pair. I think as long as you have a far superior cuc to the fish then ur perfect and keep up the weekly water changes and mind to test.Unrelated, but my tank will be a 4 foot tank that’s 48”x24”x22” (120cm by 60cm by 55cm).

If I could pair the Marine Bettas and not include a fish from my ideal stocking list, I’d ax the dwarf angel or the butterfly.
Yeah - definitely confusing. I think the 60l is supposed to mean '60 cm long'. He's got dimensions further down in the original post. I think its less likely he typoed the dimensions than that the title is misleading.The OP states 60L, which is almost 16gallons
But a 24" cube holds almost 60gallons.
@BigTomo003 which one of these is accurate?
Thanks! At least someone agrees as I have said many times he's healthy and gets along with the clowns.I think there's a lot of confusion in this thread.

My bad, yes its 24" each side. Or just over a foot and a halfThe OP states 60L, which is almost 16gallons

Oh that is why I said no it will be fine in a 60gI'm dyslexic its all good tho I'm sure its 60gallons sorry for the confusion
Yes 60gal sorry for teh confusion I was just wondering if people prefare cubes or rectanglesIf 60gallons, I will revise and say that it will be alright. 60liters, no way.
No problem with 60 gallons. I love coral beauties. I had them in my early hobby tanks and I had them in my big tanks. They are a beautiful fish. Keep in mind that they can be territorial. It might be one of the last fish you put in your tank so it doesn't pick on your other fish.Yes 60gal sorry for teh confusion I was just wondering if people prefare cubes or rectangles
Ye she was my last fish in tho i m going to put her in a larger tank,, do u know any good looking goby and shrimp pair? And do I need a deep sand bed as I only have about half an inch for the looksNo problem with 60 gallons. I love coral beauties. I had them in my early hobby tanks and I had them in my big tanks.

EDIT: I seemed to have missed that you already purchased it.
What about a good looking pistol shrimp?Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I like diamond goby's if you can handle the sand storm. Go about 3 inches
