The tank is a 20 long from Aqueon. I've had it for a little over a year now.
5 months ago a disease infected the tank killing a Yasha goby (My Favorite fish), a new chalk bass, a YWG, a Spotinculus clownfish, and a Pair of Bangaii cardinals. After the tragic event I decided to go coral and invert only with the exception of a freshwater acclimated Silver Molly.

My current livestock is

A 2 inch Maxima clam (from Clearwater aquarium)- Moved to the 5.5 gallon tank.
4 Tiger sand conchs- Pending to @Captain Ron
5 Banded Trocus snails (Really cool)- Pending to @Captain Ron
2 Astrea snails- Going to 5.5 gallon tank.
2 Nassarius snails- Pending to @Captain Ron
1 Banded Serpent star- Pending to @Captain Ron


Corals

Rainbow acan
Green Candy cane
4 Bicolor Hammers
4 Forest fire rhodactis mushrooms
Orange Yuma- Moved to 5.5 gallon tank
Space invader chalice
Mummy eye chalice
6 Forest fire digitata
Purple stylopora
Bunch of other corals

Macroalgae

5 big pieces of Atomic Broccoli Macroalgae (grew from a piece from CFM)- Pending to @Captain Ron
1 softball of Chaeto


I Appreciate recommendations on inverts!!

Are we the same person? My tank also has a small maxima from clearwater, shares most of the corals you have, and is an Aqueon 20 long from petco

Sexy shrimps are pretty cool if you have shrooms or anemones for them to hang out on

Cleaner shrimp are entertaining. But there is no one to clean in there, so it may be unfair to add them.

I also like urchins and find them interesting and pretty, but your macroalgae will be gone soon.

Also, I assume you mean seawater acclimated Silver Molly (vs freshwater).
