AGA vs Lee Mar tank???

I am picking up my first aquarium this week and I am torn between an aga tank and a lee mar tank...I hope that's how you spell it. Anyway, does anyone have an opinion as to which of these brands are better? The AGA tank would cost $290 with the overflow drilled. The Lee Mar tank would cost $430 with the overflow drilled. Thanks for your help!

P.S. the tank is 90 gallons. I am not sure if size would factor into the quality of the tank.

what's the difference between them? Sorry, I don't know the brands. But, maybe you can enlighten us as to whether they're glass or acrylic and thickness, etc???

Is one acrylic?
Also the LeeMar is probably made from Low Fe or Low Iron glass. Look at the edges of the AGA tank and you will see it's tinted green. Then walk over to the other tank and it will probably be clear. If it is green for sure go with the AGA. If they it is clear you have some decisions to make. The clear glass will make the tank clearer, but you probably wouldn't notice the difference. If the tank happens to be acrylic research some more on acrylic tanks. I use a combination of acrylic and glass tanks.

I went with the 90 gallon AGA! I love it. The aga does have a green tint to it. Thanks for the help.
