Default Coral suggestions for 6 gallon JBJ

Just picked up a 6 gallon JBJ with the Nanotuners light upgrade (2X18W PC's) The tank is well established (about 2-3 yrs) with a decent coraline algae growth. I need to do a bit of algae maintenance and get a cleaner crew in there. Currently has 1 small orange Goby and a Pistol Shrimp. Suggestions please!

personally with small tanks i would stick to small corals. It makes the tank seem bigger.
Zoas and cloves come to mind. You can also do some rics or mushrooms but i think they would get too big. Blastos and acans have small heads... well some that i have seen anyway.

If you want to do something really different go for a macro algae tank or an invert only tank or just get mini nems and sexy shrimp since those are about the only things that can take the sting from mini nems and get rid of your other fish.
