Stocking and stocking levels

Hey Guys i've got a really stupid question....:notsure:
I'm setting up little 10 Gallon Nano and was wondering how many cm of fish could i put in that little tank???
I still need perfect water quality though and would a 8000k, 35ww PC be enough light for this tank??? Sorry for sooooo many questions... just one more!!! How do you do the conversion thingy to get ww per gallon and ww to gallons???
(I'm probably making no sense....)
Well, thanks guys!!!!:jumping: :jumping:

You can keep about 3-4 cm of fish in there. Probably just a percula or ocellaric clownfish or a neon goby.
35w PC would be enough light for zoos, mushrooms, xenia, and star polyps.
To get watts per gallon, divide the number of watts by the number of gallons. You have 3.5 wpg. But the watts per gallon rule isn't a good rule to go by, because 13 watts over a .75 gallon would be the same as 1275 watts of PC on a 75 gallon tank. This isn't really right, because there are corals that would be able to live under the lighting on the 75 and not lighting on the 13. It really depends on light intensity: how far the lights are from the tank, depth, watts, etc.
