Small, only 13 gallons, with only about 10 gallons of water because of the live rock. I have a clown and a wrasse with a leather, hairy mushroom and a duncan coral. This is my first aquarium, so I'm starting small. Minimizing the 'cost' of learning and understanding that if this small enterprise goes well, I should be successful with a larger tank.
I hate to break it to you, but minimizing cost rarely goes well XDD I thought the same thing when I started my 20g and I went like 50x over my budget XD
