here lies the problem.. it all depends wat kind of equipment u r using..

ok, let's not talk abt equipment n assume juz the tk 4 simplicity.

a 4ft tk can b as many as 10 times bigger in term of vol than a 2ft tk.
a 4ft tk need at least a 1/4 hp chiller n such is too much 4 a 2ft tk.

if at a later stage u intend 2 keep light demanding corals then a 1/4hp might b under-power.

so on ur part, u really hav 2 think wat kind of equipment n wat kind of setup u gonna hav, b 4 good recommendations can b offered.

Yes bro , it best to buy one with is over size and later when u upgrade ur tank it can be use again and it save u money . If u buy something cheap and it don works well i think u won wanna keep it and u will wanna upgrade it to a better set than for there it money again.

sump,
powerhead for pumping the water back to the main tank
