I just started up a nano 10 g tank. I have 9 pounds of live rock and crush coral for the base. I have 7 crabs in there too. I wanted to put 2 clowns (the finding nemo ones) sorry i cant spell at all. I also want to put an anonome and a clam. Questions are the following...can I put a clam in there? Do I need to upgrade my light? I really dont want to spend $150 on a light for a 10g tank when i could put the money into my 75 g. BUt I will if I have to. I was thinking of using the Florida Condi Anemone, Pink Tip Haitian Anemone, or Mushroom Polyp - Green Ricordea. Which do you think I should go with any other suggestions im open to. What else would you put into the tank besides what I have listed. I was also thinking about a shrimp what kind would you put in? Sorry about all of the questions but I had some problems with my 75g i went to college and my dad took care of it while im gone (im thankful he is willing to BUT he killed alot of the tank). Im looking to set up a good looking nano for my new apartment. Also if there is anyone in the northeast ohio/PA/NY area willing to share an order let me know. Thanks ahead guys/girls.

- no clam they need metal halides which would cost you over $100 and they need supurb water quality
- the anemone would have to be small and your need atleast 36w of lighting to keep it in a 10
- condi anemonies have really long tentacles so i would not suggest putting one in a 10 if you wana keep other livestock or corals in there, i would suggest a bubble tip if you really wanted an anemone.
- for shrimp i would go with any of the cleaner shrimp species
Good Nano Corals:

mushrooms
ricordia
star polyps
feather dusters (actually worms not corals but are still relativly easy aslong as you feed them)
small leathers
candy canes
sun corals
button polyps
zooanthids
