What are the best fish for a nano reef?

A clownfish is the classic selection, but it kinda maxes out the tank all in one shot.  It may not be the best option for you.

 

What is your experience level?

Chromis, Watchman goby, cardinal, firefish(if you have a lid). Clownfish may get aggressive with age. Damsels are hit or miss, I've never had a problem with the smaller species.

Yellow watchman goby, tailspot blenny, Pygmy firecracker goby (if you can find one this guy is so cute and active. 1-1.5 inches), black bar chromis, some springer damsels are friendly. 
 

clowns will bully timid fish to death. Mean fish. My female eventually bullied her mate of 2 years until he died.

I would keep a lid with the watchman goby, I know someone who had one jump out on them!

I think I could rig something up with screen
