Default well I think that i have my mind set up

well after some discussion on what i'm doing and the rec room that we are doing Tammy AKA BOSS is wanting me to go with a in wall look again where the old 170 was. so I'm going to copy this look from Jason kozey. its a 180 gal tank. mine will be 60x24x24 or 60x20x24 havent decided yet.

any opinions on it

You'll never regret having more depth in the tank. I'd go 24" deep if you can. The design looks great, have fun!

I have a 60x24x27(h), I think you would later regret not going with 24" front to back depth. I love built in tanks and would try for it to be veiwable on 2 sides if possible. You might also look at external overflows for more space in the tank.
