switching tanks?

im thinking of switching my 36 gallon bow front for a 33gallon. why? its because i think that a longer tnak would look kinda cool and because its not as tall so more light can get down there waht do you think? is a 33 gallon easier than a 36?

I personally would keep the bigger tank but that's just cus I like bigger tanks :)

The light will get to the bottom of the tank. Its not like its murky water or like the ocean where light can't get to the bottom. Then again, im going to theory :D
