Does size really count!!!!

I'am close to finishing my room and getting ready to build my 125 tank in the wall display. My question is what size of tank would be great for a just coral and few reef safe fish display.May be 40 breeder tank, your input please.

I love breeder tanks. I setup a 20H but I really want a 30breeder..the only reason I setup the 20 was because I got a killer deal on a T5HO light that was only 24" and those breeders are 36"
I just love how they are shallow but are 18" wide..

I have a 55 now with some coral and clam in it ,but don't want to get rid of them. Just want to down size the tank .The 125 is going to be FOWLR.

I would just use the 55 for that purpose. Will maintain water params better, more volume.

55's are horrible tanks. Probably the worst size in the hobby.
Too tall, and not deep enough.
I have a 30 breeder now, that or a 40 breeder is a great size.
