Also, go with the longer of the two. Taller tanks have many disadvantages. :)

Longer is better than taller especially if you are doing a reef. Taller tank - you need stronger lighting to reach bottom. Taller tank may be hard to reach bottom for maintenance. Longer gives you more room to spead out corals. Even if you are doing a fish only tank longer gives more horizontal swimming area = good. Trust me......down the road you would wish you had more length no matter how big your tank is.
