Critters for a Pico?

I have a square glass flower pot that I would like to make into a habitat. Dimensions are 4.5" so its about .40 g.

I have some sand abut 1" and a small rock with a ricordia on it.

I would like to have some kind of live critter but don't have any idea for something this small. I suppose one snail but don't know what else.

Also I am wondering about water circulation but I don't know of anything for that small of system.

Thanks.
 
I have added a zoanthid, another rock, and an Elite Mini for circulation.

I think the sexy shrimp idea is a good one.

What kind of a snail should I put in there?
 
Although I like Trochus snails a lot I think they are too big for this setup. I am thinking about maybe a nerite snail?
 
the nerite are a good size, but I think they are prone to leaving the tank if there is not a lid or trim piece at least..
 
I have plenty of stomatellas of all sizes. I'm sure I could spare 2 or 3 since they breed in 3 out of my 5 tanks! :)

I currently have a "regular" PAR38 LED bulb shining on the tank as it sits above my kitchen sink. There are no colors currently so I was thinking about changing to one of these bulbs.

Is there anything besides the sexy shrimp? said:
I have this bulb and it has great color, and works well! Currently posted in the for sale forum.

I have changed this quite a bit. I fragged a bunch of my coral and put frags in here. I also put a fuzzy chiton (small) in here. They are a strange looking creature but this way I can actually find it. The cerith snail may have to go because it burrows in the sand and ruins my tiny aquascape. I also added some zoo plankton and phytoplankton. I have lots of those amhpipods and half an asterina starfish.
