A clown, or possibly two small clowns would be nice.

Maybe a royal gramma.

Nanos look great, just can't put many fish in them. Now inverts, stars, shrimp, crabs, snails, that's what makes nanos so cool.

You'd be farther ahead gettting the new nano deluxe from preuss pets......... $149 and it has dual lights.... and fans........ and external ballasts.. adjustable flow direction.......... lots of improvement from the nano you linked to.

with the dual lights......... you wouldn't be quite as "limited" selecting corals as you are with the standard nano.

I agree with Sylock, corals look great in a nano......... couple small fish and you might be reaching the max bioload the tank can handle.

and would it be a better idea 2 get a larger tank so i could fit more fish? and if so u have any ideas on a good cheap tank?

Lionfish, patience and planning are the two key ingredients to this hobby. What I would suggest you do is this (and in this order):
1) Figure out what you want your tank to be. Examples include, fish only tank, fish only with live rock, fish with soft coral, fish with hard coral, just soft coral, or just hard coral.
2) Figure out what type of fish or coral you want that fit in your answer to question one. Examples include, angels, clowns, tangs, gobies, etc.
3) Explore and read, read, and read some more about the fish and coral you picked in number 2. Figure out what their requirements are.
4) Figure out if you can afford/take care of/have the space for, the requirements from number 3.
5) Setup the tank, and go SLOW. The quickest way to a bad or sub par tank is to not only go fast, but to not go slow.
