The smaller the water volume ,the quicker your parameters can fluctuate out of the range of conditions that will keep your reef alive

bigger = better because you can have more stuff (yes!!), it's easier to keep stable, and you'll be itching to go larger anyways.

www.nano-reefs.com is a great website as well.
