For $360 you can get into a bigger system. 10g is sooooo hard to keep in balance. Ph, temp, and general water quality will swing wildly in a small 10g system. If you are new to the hobby it is a good idea to get the LARGEST system you can afford. Even if you have to build it piece by piece. The level of expertise necessary to keep a small system in check is actually far greater than for a larger system. Good Luck!
