There are some cool dimentions that should be made. It would be cheaper beacause it is less gallons and can have a simaler stock as a larger tank.

There should be an 85 gallon 48Lx24Wx17Tall, just like a 120 but shorter. With good filtration you could have some real monsters in a tank like that. There should also be a 84Lx24Wx17Tall only 150 gallons and is very deep. A lot of big fish don't need hight, just depth and length and of course a little bit of hight. A 48Lx16Wx17Tall would be a good 55, I think big fish like Oscar could live in those 55 dimentions with good filtration! A 42Lx24Wx17 tall would be good for fish like oscars beacause the depth and it is inbetween 3 and 4 feet witch shoukld be a good amout of room for large fish, 17 inches tall should be okay for bigt fish, I think a fish would be so happy in a deep tank that it would not care about hight! Post some dream dimentions!
 
I had a tank that I enjoyed until I got my 210g. It was a Marineland 120g with a 60x18 footprint and 26" tall. At the time I got it a 4ft tank was too short for the spot and a 6ft was too long, so this turned out to be the perfect tank for the time. I later found a way to move furniture around and bring in a 6ft tank!
 
I have a 225 5' long, 3' wide and 2' tall. its an amazing footprint and was dirt cheap for me.
 
Mike your footprint is awesome, what do you keep in there? would make a really cool biotope for cichlids or even a south american amazon tank. not to mention a kick ass marine set up!
 
That is why you should go custom. If my door were more than 3' wider, I'd have something custom-made 3' wide but sadly it is a standard 35". In fish keeping, most fishes will be more of a footprint thing than of depth. This way you can keep a wider variety. Mine is made of glass but is 530lbs heavy but very scratch-resistant. Cost me 250$ for the aquarium alone (glass, labor and all) and another 200$ for the stainless steel table that has 2" diameter frame. Don't worry, for your next projects, you can experiment with custom-made tanks.
