What would you prefer for an arowana tank. a 96x48x25 or a 96x36x30? Although the first one sounds tempting, the 25" height really annoys me.
 
I agree about the low height but the wider tank is probably more appealing for the fish.
 
I will take a 25" over a 30" any day... I hate trying to reach the bottom of my 150 tall...

actually I am 6'1, I rather just have a shorter tank tank and I think 24"H is perfect...
 
I'm 6'6, but let's get back on topic.

Id got with the 4ft wide tank cause if its 25 inches tall its basically a wide 240
 
have to agree nothing worse than tryin to work in a 30in deep tank, put it up on a stand add the euro bracing and it just sucks to work in. that bein said a 4ft wide tank is prolly gonna have a few places that are hard to reach as well.
 
I have both 24" and 30" deep tanks and I prefur the 24" tanks any day. Wider is definatly better for aros...
