what do you think is easier to begin a reef tank with...a nano 10g or 55g? the only reason i ask is because im pretty sure with suck a small tank like 10g the water can fluctuate fast, right? just would like to hear your suggestions on what i should and shouldnt do for a first timer. Anybody have a nano reef, and what is your stock list?
thanks alot in advance

Defentinally the 55.

As you said conditions can change rapidly in a 10 gallon. Also, stock wise you'd likely be limited to one fish, two at the most if they were very small.

With a reef, bigger is better. Start with the largest tank you can get, it will make your life a lot easier.
