    id buy the the 20. trust me i have had 4 tanks all still running exept one in the saltwater hobby. gess what one i took down the 26, the 20, 40, or the 4.2 custom tank i build. the 4.2 was imposssibal to keep stabe. and if a tanks not stable the means no inverts or coral, even a fish is qestionable. but i would never put a fish in a tank under 15 gallons


    but for some reason you seem to thinik that u will be saving money doing a tank that small well not relly... so i dont get it. if for some messed up reason u stay with the 5 gallon i would just do ur original idea of 1 clown goby in just the 5 gallon
