Upstairs Tank

I got the green light for a bigger tank, which is great, but I’ve got some restraints – the tank has to be upstairs. I have two available spots, one against an outside wall, but the joists are not perpendicular to the wall. The other spot is an inner wall where the joists are perpendicular to that wall

So not wanting to pay an engineer to come out, I think the max I could go upstairs is 75 gallons total water volume. I would like a sump, but that would take away from how big of a display area I could have.

With that in mind, I was thinking of an Innovative Marine SR60 or Waterbox 65.4 AIO. What are your thoughts on those tanks? Any other tank suggestions? Do you think I can go bigger and get a system with a sump?
 
My obvious answer is IM SR60. Then when you're tired of it, sell it to me.

IM = 35.43” x: 23.62” x 16.14”.
23.62-5.74 (overflow) = 17.88

WB = 47.2" x 19.7" x 17.7"
19.7-4.7 (overflow) = 15

That's 3 inch difference to rockscape.

WB has advantage with the width.
