I that I felt was beneficial when I started in the hobby.
Larger tanks are actually less demanding to maintain than the small tanks .
My 10 gallon tanks are much more sensitive and difficult to keep at optimum conditions than my larger tanks. The one thing I will say to watch out for with large tanks is that in my experience the larger tanks take longer to completely cycle their bacterial filtration when started, requiring much more patience and will-power not to begin stocking the tank before it is ready. I have used diluted bleach solutions and concentrated salt solutions. Just be sure to rinse them thoroughly afterwards. This is the most difficult time, filling and starting a new tank and waiting for it's bacterial colony to grow.
