Unique nano fish?

Zoa collector has the best price I've seen for the Helfrichi pairs. I would check his site if you are looking for unique. I have a shipment of prince's anthias and another helfrichi coming tomorrow. His fish are very healthy and packaged well. I have 2 porcelain crabs and 2 pom poms. They my favorite. I would take things slow and see exactly what you want before you go to adding. I started with a 15 gallon and went to a 40g in 7 months. My bio load is a lot. But I manage it well. Parameters stay level and fish and coral are healthy.

Kevin kohen gave a talk at macna this year about this topic. Worth finding the video of.

Unfortunately there's no video of the MACNA talks this year, however here's a link to some reviews at the Cayuga Aquatics Blog.

I have the White Lined Combtooth Blenny in my nano, and it is a great fish!
 
they can not go with other fish. they eat other fish whole, in one gulp. every angler/lion/scorpion fish eats that way. plus, some angler species get up to 6", which is too large for your tank.

have you thought about invertebrates? they're a lot more of a reasonable size to fit in a nano rather than condemning multiple fish to a 15gal. variety of invertebrates is endless as well.
