Salt Water Tank

[Frogki]

Those measurments come to about 17.5 gallons but you can still use that tank! As soon as you get your rock your ready to go! I wouldnt worry about a skimmer on a tank this size...If it were me id prolly go ahead and put about 10g's of salt water in there along with your powerheads and sand for a little motivation lol... The cycle wont start just yet tho! try and get at least 1 good piece of live rock asap

That disappoints me, I was really looking forward to what I could put in there now... Alright, so I wanted 2 clownfish, and one pink bar goby, and a few inverts (not coral).... What, out of those, can I fit in the tank and expect to be able to maintain it...? Disappointment!

the 2 clowns and maybe a tiny clown goby.

I don't want my bio load to be huge, so could I
A) Have one clown and inverts (no corals)
B) Have one pink bar goby and inverts (no corals)

You are better off getting a pair of Clowns. They are funner to watch that way too.

You could get away with 2 clowns and another small fish + inverts

yes, but be sure to stay on top of water changes, a controlled yet regular feeding schedule (you dont want to overload your tank with nutrients from food) and with such an animal load you will really benefit from something like chemi-pure elite or at least simple active carbon(in a HOb filter) somewhere down the road.
