If you only want 4' long then you are going to have to stay with a 55g or 75g. I just sunk a 265g in the wall as a picture frame on one side then wrapped around as a Peninsula. Check out my build thread in my signature if you want to see pics.
What specific do you want to know about putting it in a wall??
