I have a couple of questions regarding the purchase of a wall aquarium.
I am looking for a fish tank (preferably for salt water fish) that is about
5' in length and 4" in depth. I have checked online and have seen various
tanks vary from $200 (click link
http://www.bizarreaquariums.com/index2.html) all the way up to thousands of
dollars.
Is there anything I should be looking for when I purchase an in wall
aquarium? Why is there such a variation in price? I have no idea what
problems I may encounter if I purchase a cheaper priced aquarium (which is
what I intend to do).
Thanks in advance for any help.

Your cross-post is unnecessary (and generally considered, not a good
thing to do). Rec.aquaria.freshwater.misc is well travelled with the
expertise you need. If you reply back, please remove the other
newsgroups.
With a 4" width, you're severely limited in the size & type of fish, and
decorations you can use. I would also find out what the _actual_ width
is and measure your arm at its thickest to ensure you can reach the
bottom of the tank. It's the little things like that which will make you
crazy ;~).
Also the biological requirements of a marine tank make a 4" width
somewhat *cough* interesting. Go to Rec.aquaria.marine, and maybe wear
asbestos underwear to be safe ;~).
