My first real reef was actually a 75g. It was a nice tank and my intro into SPS. I learned a lot with it, lots of it the hard way.
Maybe it's experience, but the only real difference between that tank and my 180 is the cost to run it. Maintenance is the same, although I've automated a lot now, and even a 50g water change only takes me 10 or 15 minutes. I don't muck around with it too much, more of a sit on the couch and stare at it phase now..
