I wouldn't put a clown in there. If anything, maybe a clown goby or two?

IMO, clownfish in anything smaller than 10g is unacceptable. Many people say "yeah, but they don't swim around much", but a Maroon that I had in a 30g tank (3ft long) swam end-to-end many a time. Personally, I wouldn't put ANY fish in a 5.5g tank.
