What would you put in a 12g tank?

[mamasky]

We've got an extra 12g Eclipse tank that we're talking about setting back up. Originally, we were going to do a pistol shrimp and a shrimp goby but now hubby is thinking about a group of sexy shrimp and a few corals. We don't have the best lighting in it so we'd probably just do some mushrooms, maybe a sun coral (I've always wanted one but our 90 has too much light).
Soooo, give me some ideas of what you would put in a 12g

Thank you!

I would like the pistol shrimp / shrimp goby pairing myself along with some corals.

How much light is too much light on your 90g? I've seen sun corals kept under MH lighting, just normally placed somewhat under a ledge or in the opening of a cave to provide some shading.

Well, ok, maybe not too much light. but not really an good ledges to hide the corals under. We have a few caves but our fish really like them and I don't really want to block it off. So, I guess, I could do low light stuff, I would just rather not block my fish from using the areas.
I've got the Nova Extreme T-5's. whichever the highest wattage is. I think it's432 watts.

haha, I was actually just saying to my hubby that I would like a purple firefish since I'm afraid to put one in the big tank since there's already 3 regular firefish in there.

Careful on the sun coral. Feeding it all that food in such a small tank can affect your water levels. Not sure how it does in other small tanks.

The pistol shrimp and goby would be cool. You could arrange the rock in a cool way to show them off. Well where their cave is located.

I didn't think of that...hmmm

I'd make it a species tank for dwarf seashorses.
