You could do a cube, a tall, a rimless, a really low and long tank, a hexagon, a giant ball tank, a tank to replace a wall, a long and windy tank (like a river).... The options go on and on. I recently saw a bathtub tank actually.

Glass is pretty hard to shape like that and retain its strength... The odd shaped tanks are usually acrylic.

^ As mentioned above, as long as you aren't really trying to "bend" the glass, you could in theory make any shape with flat sides stuck together...

anyway, i'm just curious, is there any particular reason you don't want a normal shaped tank? coz i've always found odd shaped tanks to be hard to place in due to the fact they just don't seem to "fit"...

I've always wanted to do one of those "bottomless" or "open bottom" tanks.
Heres a link to one on youtube:
