it says minimum tank size is 20 gallons on here. http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...755&pcatid=755

I would think 4g would be too small for a clown.

No not a clown.. Try a small goby instead if you want a fish. Or a shrimp

Personally, I wouldn't do any fish in a 4g, maybe a sexy shrimp?

I think a clown goby may be ok. I like the clown goby myself http://www.liveaquaria.com/product/p...41&pcatid=1441

The most I'd do is a goby style tank, a neon goby or one of the clown goby's who find a perch to hang out on to watch the goings on of the tank. I have heard of people alternatively doing a goby/pistol pair in small tanks such as that as well. Or possibly an invertebrate tank for really small species (sexy shrimp come to mind).

Clownfish, definitely not .
