Get a 150W 14000K Metal Halide and do a nano reef.

they look great but are they gars???
cuz im in california and gars are illegal
Gars are illegal here in Cali? Lol, then why do they sell them in lfs here . . . >.>

I would personally go with a nice planted nano tank with a pair or two of rams and like 20 neon tetras and 15 or so rummy nose tetras. Schooling fish look better in larger numbers. :P Also throw in like 10 corys, panda corys.
 
small planted community.. i have a bolivian with a bunch of neons. looks great cause the fish accent each other with colors. if you like africans, maybe shellies? i've heard they're interesting.. or a family of bricardi, they are pretty tough little fish.
 
Planted with Apisto's, corys, hatchets and some cardinal tets
 
shellies usually need a 30" foot print in most cases, the added height of a 20 gallon really is not useful for shellies
 
do sw... that enough? :D

how many FW tanks do you have?
how many SW?
 
SW is deffinitely not worth it on a 20 gallon, you would have to put alot of money into it, but if you got the money go ahead :). If you want an easier salt tank i would advise getting the oceanic biocube as it has everything you need at a decent price considering how expensive lights are for salt tanks
 
well i guess a planted community fresh wins here. i will give it a try and start a thread about my process. thanks guys for the ideas and opinions.
