can these fish go in a 7gal nano?

I would drop the banggai for your tank size. That would leave just one clown fish. Depend on which type and how big of the clown fish to get, the only fish may get over territorial in a tank of that size. You may want to get a pair of small clown fish and let one of them to be the dominant female. This way, your tank would be lively. Just be careful on water parameter, otherwise, a deteriating anemone is going to kill the whole tank fast!

I keep 3 tanks, all nanos. Nothing over 15g. I don't understand this recent infatuation with the "fish in a dixie cup" look. The books I read put the minimum tank size of the fish you mention at 20g. While it's possible to keep fish in smaller spaces you should think of the stress on the fish. These small tanks make beautiful invert-only tanks and even then they keep you on your toes. Why subject a fish to the water quality swings and other issues inherent in water columns this small? Those issues are exacerbated by vertibrate feeding and metabolic processes. Just because others do it doesn't make it right.

Hey,

I was planning on setting up a 7gal nano with 55wats (10k) of light and the following inhabitants, tell me what you think (good or bad) :

1 - clownfish (some kind, not sure yet)
2- banggai cardinals
1 - anenome (bta)
some various corals.

and some various cleanup critters.

so what do you guys think of this setup? this is enough light for an anenome and corals right? is it enough room for the banggais? (its over 7wpg). Thanks for your input!
