Default Which looks better (longer or deeper)?

In my upcoming planted tank I'm gonna be dividing the tank into the main
area and a sump of some sort that will be part of the main tank. The tank
itself is 50G (36" * 18" * 19" high). The sump will occupy 10G of that.
I'm wondering which configuration would look nicer from an aquascaping point
of view

sump on the right side of the tank so that the main tank would end up being
28" * 18" * 19" high

or

sump at the back of the tank so that the main tank would end up being 36" *
14.5" * 19" high

or

a cross between the two with the sump at the back of the tank and also in
the back right corner; the tank would then be 36" * 16" * 19" high minus a
piece 8" * 8" in the back right corner.

Just looking for input on ease of aquascaping each idea, since I've never
before had a planted tank.

Thanks,
Harry

P.S. Unfortunately a seperate sump is out of the question, and I'm set on
having some kind of sump.
