Are you sure you want an acrylic tank? One of my tanks is acrylic and I hate it. Hard to clean coralline algae from it, as you can only use plastic scrapers.
And they are very easily scratched. All you need is a grain of sand (or coralline) caught in your mag cleaner, and it will make a scratch. Mine is full of scratches. And I use the special underpads for acrylic, but like I said, all it takes is a small grain of sand.
I have another glass tank downstairs and it is a joy to clean compared to my acrylic one. And while it is an old tank, hardly any scratches on it.
