Lol the 90 will be sw. In a 10 your very limited on the fish you can keep. The 90 has many many more options

And if your new to salt, a 10g will be extremely difficult to keep stable. A 90g would be much easier as bad things won't happen near as fast as with a 10.

Yeah that's what I hear about small tanks but figured I would give it a try until my big tank is built in! If I do the 90 sw do I have to go to a sump system or can I just use hob filters!?

Never a stupid question. Now I dont use either lol but octopus makes good ones of both. The power heads can be easily replaced if u get a bad one, but the skimmer you will want a quality one
