Welcome! I started with a biocube because I wanted to make sure I could keep salty things alive before I made a more massive investment. Biocubes are great all in ones. I added a skimmer and a uv sanitizer in addition to what comes in the kit. The lights on the biocube will also support a lot of beginner corals pretty decently - I'm running stock everything and my tank seems super happy. So if you decide you'd like to introduce one or two corals later on, you won't have to change much.

This is my tank. Everything is just waking up, so forgive the corals for not being overly welcoming.

Hey Dany,
Take a little time to look at the tank build threads on here and figure out what you want before you buy a tank. If you decide you really like fish or corals that get large then you will want to start with a tank that isn't too small. The smaller tanks are great for small fish and a few invertebrates. If you decide you want a dolphin show you might want to get a larger tank. :)

Beautiful tank thank you what kind of live stock do you have i see the 2 clown fish
 
It does not matter if dry or seeded rock but biocubes are very supportive tanks for basic corals and is something you can try down the road. Seeded/live rock will help build a good ecosystem and cycle the tank quicker.

Thank you! Right now, just the two clownfish are in there. I've been adding pods in prep for a goby. I also want to add a coral beauty and 7 line wrasse.

I have tons of corals - mushrroom, zoas, monti's, acans, birdstnest, cat's paw, palys, frogspawn, torches, etc. I really love the corals.
