Hi all i have a nano tank that is 60x30x45. the water is slightly brackish and there is a large piece of driftwood with some twigs and large rocks in it. the fish that are currently inside it are 3 bumblebee gobies, a knight goby (that keeps hiding) and a syncrossus hymenophysa (loach). Are there any other fish that u could suggest for this tank because it looks kind of empty now. As well as that, the wood keeps releasing tannins and the water looks like its been mixed with soap? Anyways, i'd be thankful for any suggestions.

Dragon goby, archer fish, scats, plenty of cool brackish fish out there. Columbian catfish as well

by those dimensions i assume you mean centimeters, which would make it 80l or 20 us gallons.
you are limited but many light brackish (no greater than 1.005sg) fish can fit in that size.
golden wonder killifish, persian killifish, rice fish, horse faced loach, figure 8 puffer (but it might kill your other fish), kribensis cichlid, wrestling halfbeak and celebs rainbowfish (although your goby might eat them unless they are full grown already), platys work well but its too small for mollies( pineapple platies look gorgeous), guppies will do well but your knight goby will eat them, one of the freshwater flatfish would work, glassfish will do ok. There are a few more that might work just look around.
But do note that it is certainly too small ofr archers, scats, monos, chromides, and dragon gobies.

yes they are. in freshwater they are gray because they are unhappy. with brackish they go white and you notice a huge difference in their activity. my levels are at 1.015 and he loves it. hes about 3.5" and real fat. when he was in fresh he sat in the same spot all day and was a dark grey
