36 Gallon Corner or 24 Gallon Aquapod? Please Help!

Hello,
I am new to saltwater, very new. I have had a 36 gallon freshwater corner tank up and running for three years. I have always wanted some saltwater fish-keeping but have always been to afraid of the cost and difficulty to try it. Now i am ready to give it a try. My question is this, should i convert my 36 gallon or buy a new Aquapod 24 gallon tank (the cheaper one without the high quality lighting). My tank now has a Marineland Emperor 280 filtration system and some crappy fluorescent 15 W bulb. It also has a 100 W heater that hangs on the back. The glass on the 36 does not curve like a bowfront, so it isn't as nice looking as most. Sadly, I have little money to spend on the hobby. With the Aquapod i could buy the mini Skimmer and then I would be set, also I could fill it better with live rock and sand with my budget, and furthermore I could greatly benefit from it coming with decent lighting. But with that said I know nano-tanks can be very hard to keep. So once again, for a beginner, which is a better choice, converting the 36 gallon or buying the aquapod. Thanks in advance for your help
