Hi my name is Tim and brand new to SW. Can anyone tell me what would be the ideal tank size to start? I have been looking at 55gal but what about the all-in-one 29gal oceanics? Any opinions on which is the best starting tank with cost in mind? Thinking about marginal reef tank btw. Thanks.

To Reef Central

the larger the tank the better IMO. Larger tanks are more forgiving of mistakes in water chemistry ect then smaller ones.
