Basically, no type of paint is ideal for aquarium use because they contain harmful chemicals that can kill the fish. However, if you have a glass tank, you may paint the OUTSIDE of the glass tank instead of the inside to keep the harmful chemicals out of the tank but the colors will still be visible.

How are saltwater aquariums different to other types of aquariums?

There is no difference in the physical aquarium itself, only what you put in it. If you go to a pet store and buy a glass or acrylic aquarium, you can use it for salt or freshwater. You may use some different equipment in it based on whether it is fresh or saltwater. For instance protein skimmers are generally used on saltwater tanks only, you use different lighting for freshwater planted aquariums versus salt water coral reef aquariums, etc. Of course the fish or invertebrates are specific to the type of water you are using as well. YOu may see some aquariums advertised as reef or saltwater, but this is just because they are a kit that comes with lighting, filtration, etc. that is suitable for saltwater.
