Just remember that there is a significant cost when you go bigger. Not just the initial equipment, rock etc... but also regular maintenance items afterward.
Yeah, I have been starting to save and I'm going to continue to save until I have to buy it. What do you think is a good price for the size?

I had a few nano cubes then went to a RedSea reefer 525 deluxe. This tank is 100 g display with 30 gallon sump. The nice thing about this tank is it comes with lighting. So it saved me a bit of money. I would suggest just to keep asking and doing research. I will tell you though that you will get many, many different opinions so definitely use your gut when it comes down to it!

Welcome to R2R Adriana! I think the tank size depends on the livestock you're wanting. Tangs should be in a bigger tank, whereas clowns and other smaller fish do great in smaller tanks. I wouldn't recommend the standard 55 gallon, just because there isn't very much width to play with. Pretty much ANY other tank size works out better, just my opinion though. Start deciding now what equipment and salt you'd like to use. Salt is a neverending expense, and depending on the size tank you decide on, could run over 100 dollars a month.
