    My little brother just sold off his turtles. Now he has a empty 20g tank. He says he wants to do saltwater. He wants 2 clowns. I don't know what else I can get in a 20g.

    What about a goby/shrimp pair? Check out the Nano Fish section of Liveaquaria.

    there are a few options Bloodkip
    check out Liveaquaria as they have a nano tank section which lists smaller species of fish which would be OK in that sized set up

    He says he want the clowns and the goby, maybe 2 chromis instead of 3?

    The cave transparent goby looks like a cool fish. I don't have one, but did look into getting one. They will require several feedings per day. If he is up to that I say go for it, if not rethink that fish.

    That does seem like a lot of fish for such a small tank...

    Chromis should be in threes, maybe get the wrasse I suggested above?
