starting a 6gallon nano what fish, how many?

[Yarrow]

I'm starting a 6 gallon eclipse nano. I want to put 3 narsisus one atresia, and 2 hermit crabs as the clean-up crew.

1. I would like to put two yellow gobies and a cleaner shrimp in there but I would like to know if this is pushing it.

This tank is for work and I want it to be relatively low maintainance. There is enough LR in there to choke a small horse--as much as I could fit all the way up to the surface with a little room up front.

2. What is the hardiest fish I can put in this tank? How about 2 chromis?

Thanks

damsels would be the hardiest, and there are a few quite colourful ones to choose from. Most would say two fish would be alot, but just change your water weekly and you would be fine. Ive seen a 12eclipse in a lfs for 8 mos with 6 clownfish, so i think anything could be done like what you are suggesting.

If you want low maintenance, make it 1 fish at most, or no fish and make it soley a reef tank.

Damsels are hardy...but they're also nasty fish as a general rule. I wouldn't put one in a small tank like that because it'll lower your already scant options. The Clown Goby's fine....maybe a Rainford's Goby, too....not closely related at all so there shouldn't be any problem having that and the Clown Goby.

There is no low maintenance nano. Your going to do something to it almost everyday. If you do 2 chromis, that's probably the max.
