No fish in a 5 gallon IMO. It's just too small. But if you must, get a percula clown. They only get 2.5", 3" max. Tomato clowns get to 5".

Gobies, i think do the best. Firefish, clown gobies, banded gobies and scooter blennies. Also damsels are pretty happy in nano's

A green chromis would be about all.
Most blennies like algae and they will have a 5 gallon clean in no time. Most of the time it is really hard to get them to eat other foods so alot of them die of starvation.
Firefish like more than 5 gallons and like to jump too.
One fish is all you can have in that small of a tank.
Would you like to live in a room that is 5'x5' with other people?
Just a thought......
