Can someone please tell me the tank capacity for a standard 4ft. At home I have no computer access. But now I am at work I realise I don't know the tank measurments to plug into the site calculator for volume.

I am an aussie so my Melafix container has instruction in litres. If an aussie couild tell me how many litres my tank holds that would be good.

I was conservative last night with dosage just in case (I also have clown loaches in there). (but the little guy does seem a bit better this morning! swimming in the mid and upper regions. )
This is the situation: http://www.fishprofiles.com/files/forums/The%20Hospital/66240.html?200511151529

Thanks for your time

Fish tanks are an expensive addiction

Hey there.

In Aust. our std tank sizes are

48" x 14" x 14" 154lt; 34 US Gal
48" x 14" x 18" 189lt; 52 US Gal
48" x 18" x 18" 254lt; 67 US Gal

Mine is 48 x 14 x 20 so about 58gal/220L

I have written 210L on the bottle in permanent ink. I will keep putting 2 capfuls in the the tank. It is not full dosage but I have clown loaches in there.

2 capfuls shld work for a 200 litre tank. Basically 5 ml to 25 litres, and 55 gallons is approx 200 litres.

What is the temperature in your tank, may i also suggest adding 4 handfuls of rock salt. I have 20 clowns, and most often, rock salt takes care of the situation, only if I see it spreading, do I medicate the tank.

Thanks clowny but the meds are for another little guy. The clowns just happen to live in the neighbourhood too.
