I only have my favorite fish, a yasha goby in there currently. I want very uncommon things, trying to avoid clownfish and other super common fish. I wanna keep it super unique, any ideas?
 
Not sure if these falls to your common fish:

Pygmy Wrasse
Possum Wrasse
 
Trimma and eviota gobies, ailiops mesostigma, pink streak wrasse, barnacle blennies, picta blenny, grammica goby, candy basslet, Lipogramma evides, curious wormfish.
 
I have a pistol shrimp already lol, but those fire fish are pretty cool I'll consider
They are a little expensive and there are ones that are cheaper that look different but these are defiantly the most uncommon

Actually there are ones that are more uncommon than the yellow faced helfrichi. The true helfrichi from the Cook Islands is even more rare, fetching $800-900 a specimen.

There have only been a handful offered in the U.S.

Here is another close relative that has yet to be offered in the U.S., but if it does it would tempt me at that price. Navigobius dewa.

Pigmy hawk fish are pretty cool:)

All very cool ideas, thinkin about getting a couple of those ones... U seem to know a lot of species, any other cool ones for a tank this size?

Thanks, those are my favorites for that size. Others that would work for that size include neon gobies, clown gobies, stigmatura blenny, jaguar goby.
