I said "small fish like Gobies" and "hardy fish like Damsels".

A 3" Sailfin Tang in a 10-gallon tank compared to a 3" Ocellaris Clownfish all of a sudden size isn't the concern. My point is that a 10-gallon is not suitable for all fish- even if they are small. A 20-gallon or a 40-gallon might be a better choice. For bigger fish like large Angelfish, Butterflyfish, Tangs, etc an even bigger quarantine tank may be needed.
