It is not a good idea to buy a tiny fish which will outgrow its tank sooner than you think even though you have the present intent to upgrade later.
There have been many suggestions on this board by some of the more experienced reefers to try a Tang on the Valonia. A quick Google search suggests Tangs as well.

I have absolutely no plans of upgrading the tank. One of two things will happen; he will eat the Valonia, it will run out, and he will need a new home; or he won't eat the Valonia and he will need a new home. Read the first paragraph of the last post on the first page. Honestly, he has a better chance of living to a ripe old healthy age through making a pit stop at my tank than he did hanging out at the LFS. The LFS sold him to me knowing full well I had a 33g tank. I won't sell him on to someone who has a tank that's too small for him. He will get a handpicked home after me, so he's lucky to be in my tank for now.
