To make the answer short, no. The larger the aquarium the better. Most suggest that you start with a tank AT LEAST 29 gallon or larger

I will second that. It can be done, but may be more work then your willing to do at first. The bigger the tank, the better.

I am somewhat still new at the world of Saltwater (only a year and a half experience)...The bigger the better because if something starts to go wrong it's easier to correct!

I've got a 55 gal. sw aquaium. I think it is a great size once the tank cycled my water parameters havent changed a bit. So yeah, a 10 gal. is better if you have some experiance under your belt and i dont suggest anything under a 20 gal. to start with atleast a 30 is ok. Remember when it comes to saltwater tanks the bigger the better. (and freshwater)

Good luck
