They are like miniature groupers.
These are the coolest fish if you wanted it solo in a nano.
thats what i would do if i had a nano.
or a solo cowfish.

Any of the small scorpionfish would work (like hawaiian leaf scorpionfish), or a small angler fish (A. pictus). Just remember w/ any of the meat eaters that they make a fair amount of metabolic watse, even thou they are sedentary fish, so you'll need to keep an eye on water quality. Lastly, most predators require meaty foods- so again keep an eye on the water quality

Reefer
Hawkfish - some get a tad on the large side but most stay 3 - 4 inches and mostly perch and swoop much like their namesake. Put in a few small feeder shrimp and watch the show!
I have a lyretail hawk in my big reef and I would reccomend them with caution as they get a bit aggressive with other fish. The cool thing is they spend a lot more time swimming in open water and almost look like an anthias - you can actually find them feeding with anthias schools in the wild.
Note even though I said nano aggressvie fish I'd still keep maybe one of these fish in a 29 minimum - also a cover is helpful since they can get quite a lot of air if the mood hits them!

are we forgetting --pound for pound champ --the domino damsel?!
those steeni pseudochromis (sri lankan) or vampire pseudochromis, or the oblique lined pseudochromis are terrors according to my dottyback book
they should look cool all red and black

every pic i 've seen shows them displaying a jawful of mean front canines. I think there is a pick of one in the show your aggressive fish thread -- red head w/ black body
