	tank size?
June Hobbyist Posts: 66 Kudos: 36 Votes: 0 Registered: 07-Aug-2004	Hi everyone. I was given an aquarium (tank only) and not sure what the volume is. The glass dimensions are 12x23x60 and I'm guessing that size holds 80 gals. Any mathematicians on the board? Thanks in advance. ~June

Your tank would be 71.7 gallons, which for all practical purposes is just about 70 gallons. Ack, I'm too slow.:%) [span class="edited"][Edited by Shinigami 2004-08-09 21:14][/span] -------------------------------------------- The aquarist is one who must learn the ways of the biologist, the chemist, and the veterinarian.
