30 gallon? 50 gallon?

[fishbonethedog]

I am debating whether I want to build a 30 or 50 gallon tank. A friend said that I should build a little 30 gallon tank and make it a dragonet tank. But I'm not sure whether I want a dragonet tank or a tank with some clowns, a dwarf angel, a goby etc. What would be a good size tank and maybe what would be a good stock list? Also, how many mandarins would be optimal for a 30 gallon tank?
