In my nano is enough light for Acropora, Montipora to grow, but the colors are not so good as in my main aquarium.

There are two pictures to compare light in my nano aquarium and my 130g. aquarium

Aquarium 130 g. , 8x54W T5

SPS corals grow very fast ( approximately 0,3 kg/per month)

According to my opinion pair of clowns is two much for 6.g aquarium. I do not like that clown is alone in aquarium and even one is two much for 6.g aquarium.

I have idea to put some fish , which is quite small (up to 2" adult size)
 
A yellowhead jawfish is probably the best nano fish i have ever kept. I kept him in my 12g nano for about 8 months but then i moved. But yea, he had great personality and really liked people watching. He was very attune to what was going on outside of the tank.=)
