I would hang it from the ceiling, but I have set the tank up in a temp location before I move it into position and I don't want to suspend it twice.

Have a look at how 2" al would look before you ask for that. For me 2" is a bit bulky, but that's just me.
If you have your welder do the job, he could grind the welds flat so that you would not even see them. Seamless look. Just a bit more $
If he uses the proper grinding grit, you would not even see scratches.
