    Get the biggest tank that you can afford.

    Agreed. If you start too small you will soon be wanting to upgrade to a larger tank so save yourself the trouble and start with the largest possible.

    There are a ton of options for fish, so I would suggest getting an idea of what kind of tank you want to have (i.e. peaceful or aggressive), and once you decide on that start putting together a stocking list, take note of their individual needs, and then aquascape your tank accordingly.

    Go slow and do lots of research, but, most importantly, have fun with it.
