I had a small Trimma goby in mine. It was a ton of room for the tiny little fish, plus I had sexies and a clean up crew
With the light...the heat I am wondering about is the fixture itself...mine got so hot that the sides ended up a bit melted...and the plastic broke down. The fixture was not closed in...was an open top with a frame that it sat on....

 Cute little fish the trimma is. What happened to your wee tank? Do you have any pics of it?

I took my 2.5 down when we had no AC in the house as I couldn't keep the temp down...and my evaporation was brutal, BUT...seeing yours up and others I REALLY want to set it up again. It was fun, and quite easy...! (sorry it wasn't the best time for a photo as we were renovating, tank was dusty and front hadn't been wiped well...but you get the idea!) I only had some macro's, a few zoo frags, some softies and that's it....I wish I had kept it going longer so I had the chance to make it really pretty but I gave up quickly with the temps...AND...if I put it back up I would drill it so I had an overflow. I had an aquaclear on it as a fuge, that was lit with macros/sand bed in it.....but just gave up...now with central AC.....it is getting tempting. If you look hard in the picture at the light on the right side...you see a bit of plastic missing...that was the start of the sides just falling apart.....it got super hot, and yep I would put a fan closer, as I had no fans close.
