There are no hard and fast rules as to what fish can be kept in nano tanks, apart fromt eh obvious size issue that is!
I would recommend any of the smaller goby species or maybe some of the smaller clownfish.

Yeah, Clown Gobies, Neon Gobies etc stay nice and small. People debate whether Common Clownfish should or shouldnt be kept in tanks as small as 10 gallons. I personally think the minimum is a 12 Gal for a Percula/ocellaris clown, but definately no smaller after seeing the size of my female! People say they can go in 10 Gallons as they a) dont get OVERLY huge and b) in the wild they dont travel far from there anemone, hence not requiring an overly large tank but IMO this isnt a fair way of judging what size tank they should go in captivity.
Your best bet is to go with some sort of Goby and go with inverts such as Hermits and shrimp
