Deep & wide: Do you prefer a tall or shallow tank?
In addition to the more common aquarium shapes, some tanks are more shallow and others are tall (or even extra-tall). Shallow tanks can look more like a lagoon, provide a better top-down view, and are often easier to get into for maintenance, whereas tall tanks can look more like a picture, provide a better side view, and can often be more challenging to get into for maintenance. Do you have a preference between shallow tanks and tall tanks? If you had to pick between these two form factors, which would you select and why?
