I'd go with some nice shrooms (or those tiny anemones the one guy is selling on RC) and some Sexy Shrimp. Add some other corals, like zoas, etc.. if you can find a frag small enough.

Its Florida crushed coral on the bottom. The tank is an "Aquacube". The light does fit perfectly between the top frame of the tank. There is a plastic cover on the front of the tank with a convenient 1" square feeding hole in it. I did buy a piece of cut glass to go under the Coralife mini light. I have a Whisper Power Filter 10 on the back and a submersible 25W heater inside. I was thinking about getting more LR but didn't want to take up too much room for a fish. Maybe a little more LR? Still not sure about a fish.

i think a red headed goby (or something similar) would be ok :) they don't contribute a lot of bioload and most stay around 1.5'' ...your choice, but as others said, no fish is best!

Yeah...I'm currently building a pico (~1 gallon, less with LR/sand) using ONLY the (small) rocks the (also small) corals come attached to. No fish in that one, sadly.

 

Still, fun stuff.
