Don't go marine!!! It's a biorb. They're not great. Definitely not meant for marine. Maybe some tetras or livebearers. What do you like?

I'd go for shrimps in a planted tank.

i only thought marine because there are a few on youtube and they looked good, erm i like anything really open to anything?

I would go marine. The filters in Biorbs are weak. So I would stock lightly, I agree with the idea of a shrimp tank with a shoal of galaxy rasboras, can look good.

Marine in a biorb? Not a great plan.

If you really an want to use it, cherry shrimp and a small shoal of ember tetras or green neon rasboras might work.

I'd go for shrimps in a planted tank.

Tiny tetras or micro rasboras would add a little movement as well though.
