I am waiting for my cycle to finish, then I have devised my plan for fish. The tank is 18gallons (Barley a nano!) with an air driven skimmer and T8 Actinic lighting. I will keep,

 

1 royal gramma, 1 common clown, 1 Fire goby, 1 Watchman, pistol shrimp. I have seen comments about yellow tangs being to Large for a nano, is my tank large enough to accomodate one of thesen too?

No...your tank isn't big enough. For one tangs are swimmers and need lots of swimming room to feel comfortable. Secondly, they graze constantly and an 18 will not ptovide them with enough grazing area to feed properly. With your other fish mentioned you, IMO, don't really have the room for another fish, especialy one of the size of a tang.
