Well, I'm just putting together my first nano as well (about 16 gallons) but I plan it to be an SPS tank for a couple of reasons. One, in the small space you and I have, many softies or LPS corals sting each other if they get in close contact. I have that problem already in my 70G tank where I can't put anything near anything else without the tenticles coming out.
Two, the color combinations of SPS are crazy nice.
I would take a look at Snappy's online sale (Coral Master on here) and think about filling that beauty you have with SPS frags that will color up in every shade. His prices are reasonable and the 8 frags I got from him have all been doing well.
Just my thoughts though. I admit that SPS are tougher to keep in the long run but the rewards just seem that much bigger.
