Nanos are not for beginners in the saltwater area. Id suggest something larger than 30 gallons if this is your first.

I'd go with 55 to 75 for a beginner. The initial setup is crucial and you cannot cut corners at all. I started with a 55 and moved to a 75 in less than a month for this reason.

And the ViaAqua tanks are complete junk IMHO! That is "decent" live rock....Not the best, Not the worst.
