Agreed. If you want to try breeding Acanthicus Adonis, 5000g would be a good start. If you have your brain spinning with ideas about themed tanks, multiple tanks would be a must.
Would go for the bigger one and move into it and try and grow gills . I have heard it can be done if you concentrate for ages in the dark
The huge one would be my choice. 5000 gallons is big enough where even if You wanted to do something smaller like a massive school of tetras or something of that nature they would have enough area that they would be fine.
Personally I love plecos and cats, so the 5000 would allow me to finally get a rtc and a tsn along with a few species of pleco and have room for more decorative species.

Depends on what type of tank.
If it were a reef tank I'd got with the 5000 gallon. The cost will hurt, but a giant reek tank with small sharks swimming around would be freaking awesome. Maintenance would require scuba gear and chain mail but if you are doing a 5k reek cost is probably not an issue.
Same would go for a salt water fish only set up.
If these were fresh water I'd go go with 500 gallon tanks and set up various biotopes.

I'd go with the 5000 and do a complete monster setup.. big cats swimming alongside pimas, aros, northern pike, rays, channa micropeltes, channa marulia, channa marulioides, etc.. jup, I'd go with the real monster one.. 
big step anyways, my biggest now is a 300 and I'd trade a small brain dysfunction (the sort of one where people say you've been touched by angels) for a 600ish acrylic tank..
