Do you need a big aquarium to build a great reef tank? Nope! You can build a great reef tank at any size from a canning jar up to your local neighborhood lagoon - it all comes down to two things. What do you want to keep in your reef tank? How much money do you have to spend now, and down the road for maintenance?
Equipment and maintenance on a smaller tank is going to be orders of magnitude cheaper than on a big tank like mine. I even regret buying such a large tank sometimes, but my Achilles Tang makes up for it. I built by tank around the needs of my fish, my Achilles tang in particular. You should do the same thing. Take a look at websites like LiveAquaria - not to buy anything, but just to see what sorts of fish you might keep. Write down the names, do some research about their care. Some, like deep water fish, might like subdued lighting or cooler tank temperatures. Others, like the Achilles tang which lives in shallow water and waves, need large tanks with exceptional amounts of flow. Knowing the requirements for the fish, coral, shrimp, or whatever you want to keep will let you make an informed decision about the aquarium that would best house them all.
