I think the OP is looking for a fish that will be okay in his softie tank.

ah, gotcha, my bad
 I read everything EXCEPT for the words "softy tank" lol. Anywho, i'd stay away from the manderin in a 6...that'd be more work than the fish itself is worth...you'd be buying so much food...just to be feeding a 15 dollar fish lol. I mean i know you cant put a value on a fish that you love and whatnot...but you get my point.I'd say go w/like a firefish, or maybe like a yellow watchman gobie w/a randalli pistol shrimp. I had that pair in my nano and it was awesome. Or many of the other watchman type gobies would work too...like the yasha haze or something.

here's the yasha...personally i dont think they need a whole 30g...if they're anything like the yellow watchman, they rarely swim around the tank. My yellow watchman, even though he was in a 29g tank, stayed w/in like 10 inches of his little hole. So i put him in a 3g and same thing...he was fine w/that and his little shrimp buddy.
http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_...catid=1145&N=0 yellow watchman...gets a little bigger but they recommend smaller tank?? haha idk... http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_...pcatid=228&N=0 prawn goby... http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_...pcatid=197&N=0 hi fin banded... http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_...pcatid=181&N=0 wheelers... http://liveaquaria.com/product/prod_...pcatid=226&N=0 There's a bunch of the shrimp gobies so i'll stop there haha

which one? the yasha?? I didnt even notice that....I believe it though. A lot of really small fish have high metabolisms or something like that, so they're like a bird...goes right in and right out lol. So they need to be fed a couple times a day (or better yet a few really really really small meals a day) otherwise they'll be "runnin on empty" too long, so to speak lol. At least thats the way i took it when i read some article on smaller fish a long time ago

A Tail Spot Blenny would be a wonderful fish for a nano tank, they are the smallest of the Blenny's and are cute as heck with great personality.

That's a very nice fish pic. Do they do anything for the tank? Besides look cool! Janitorial?

I kinda want to get something that has some other purpose (like cleaning or eating pests) and look cool. Still stongly considering a shrimp gobie. I know they dont clean, but they are still cool.

Tail Spot Blenny's (or just about any Blenny for that matter, some more then others) will munch on algae.
