Any short people own 90 gal tanks?

I really want a 75 gallon, but they aren't so easy to find. There is someone selling a 90 gallon in a local fish club.

.. but I'm worried it would be too tall.
I'm only 5'2". Even with a step stool I wonder if I would be all the way to my shoulder in the water to aquascape/clean/etc.

75g were just added to the Dollar per Gallon sale this year at most petcos .
Next sale should be around end of march.
I am 5'6" with a 180g and a ladder.
It is up to my armpit to reach bottom.
The 90 should add 4.5 " in depth over the 75.
I have tongs[eheim]. There are several brands for aquarium. Big stuff like rocks can be a problem.

Only one Petco in the state got 75's in on the sale last month- only 2, and they sold out immediately! I may wait till the next sale, though...
