Well seeing as you are in Australia, erectus is not a possibility for you, they are just not available over there yet.

Of the species you do have readily available, I would recommend starting with some reidi or angustus. Both are very hardy species and well suited for a beginner and are available as captive bred.

As for a tank, I'd suggest an AR620T by aquaone. It is a 35 gallon tank and is suitable for 2 pair. Temps should be kept in the 22-23C range.

Live rock and live sand are fine. A turn over rate of 5-7 times your tank volume is a good flow rate.

If you tell us a little more of what you have in mind for a tank set up we can let you know if it will work or not.
