Thinking about an upgrade

I've put a little over a year into my red sea 130 and it's filled out nicely. I'm seriously thinking about a cad lights 120 gallon or a red sea 500 for Christmas. Honestly all I really do is a 10 gallon water change once a week and clean the glass. Just wondering what kind of maintenance will I be looking at with a larger reef tank? Are large tanks a lot more work??

Just more expensive parts because they are bigger. Bigger skimmer, bigger and more power heads, bigger sump, more lights, stronger return. Luckily you can make the switch and slowly upgrade everything.
 
I love what I have now and like I said super easy up keep. Just wondering if a larger take would take the fun out of it. In my mind I'm imagining how awesome it would be to have more fish, corals clams, etc. But if I'm spending every day off fighting with a big tank that could be really taxing. Any opinions of the Cad Lights/ Red sea over 100 gallon set ups?
