I feel like a 37 gallon is a good starting tank and my husband wants a 55. I guess its not a huge difference but this is my first saltwater tank and want to know what is the best size to start with.

+1It is not the size that's important as much as how much you want to spend and what sort of corals fish you want to keep. Med size is the best beginner tank. Too small and you are restricted as to what fish you can keep and you have to keep eyes on fluxuations a lot more closely. Too big and its harder to clean, do water changes ect...

Agreed, a 55 just isn’t deep enough to properly aquascape.A standard 75, 90 or 120. They all cost about the same amount after the tank purchase and (pumps/lights/etc.) would be usable on any of them.
