notice the key word in that sentence "or"
Fine in there for how long? Sorry... A 2.5 gallon tank is way to small for any fish.
Water stability is also a big issue in that size tank.

update:
I just ordered a new oak base, and canopy from a fellow hobbist who builds them. I got a small cleaner shrimp. I just added some more zoas their a soft yellow color. I also added black background. Got a digital themometer, and a 7watt hob light for the refugium.
Does any one know a good brand heater that is super small? I am looking for one that will fit in the refugium.

I have a 2.5 gal nano too. I have no fish in it, just a cleaner shrimp, a cerith snail, and 2 hermits. (1 a scarlet and 2 unidentified.....anyone have any good species identification links? I cannot get a pic of them, my cam is not good enough. They are tan in color and are directly from the ocean....)

I'm not sure about tan colored ones. Have you searched, and asked on this website?

Thanks for playing.
if you have a 10gal sump then your not tech. running a 2 gallon tank are you?
even if you do run it your quality might be okay... but do you think a fish .. any fish... would be happy in a 2 gallon tank....
i mean you can put a tiger in a 6x6 cage but it's not gonna make a happy tiger or let your animal reach its full potential lifetime... we are in this hobby to provide a good life for the inhabitants .. not push the limits of what we can do. more what we should do to sustain life

I agree Tuningivis. If I wanted fish I would have set up my bigger tank first. When I got this tank I was gonna set it up, and let my husband bring it to work for a desk tank. But I fell in love, and don't want it to leave. I only have a cleaner shrimp and some different types of snails. I really want to add one more shrimp, but I dont know which one (preferably one that might eat FWS) If thier is one. I dont want to push it either.
I am having a hard time getting my reef pests under control. I am no quitter though, I will get these buggers out.

yup looked and asked. I have a pic of one, but it is not a good pic, and the crab that is in the pic does not have his large pincher because he lost it in his last molt. He seems to be about to molt again, as his pincher has started growing back. Being that they are from the ocean, I really don't have any idea what kind they are. They get along good with my cleaner shrimp and my scarlet hermit too so that's all that really matters. Although it would be neat to know what they are.
