Go as big as you legitimately can. Larger tanks are easier to take care of.
Thats mostly because nothing good happens in a system quickly and the larger the volume of water USUALLY the slower or more gradual the change.
Problem is cost. Water changes add up quick not to mention the real money should be spent on the equipment also.

Yea the cost is higher but you have less of a chance of screwing up your system, especially as a beginner.
Equipment can be purchased cheap through forums, Craigslist, etc.
Fwiw, I would start with freshwater first.
The cost of water changes shouldn't be much at all. Let's say you do 10-15% every week. That's 20-30 gallons in a 210 gallon. Something smaller like a 75 gallon and you're using 10 gallons a week.
