Well i traded one of my 55g long tanks for a 75g long uncover. I would like to get a Green Terror for the 75 once its done cycling. My question is will the 75 be big enough and also should i buy a cover for the top? i like to here your opions on this matter :)
 
i would get a cover, my old Gt used to jump in excitement for his food. he would also attack stuff on the surface in a similar fashion to a great white shark breaching.
a standard 75g would be fine but im unsure of the dimensions of a 75g long. as long as its at least 48" long and 15" front to back then it should be fine.
 
Cool to know, my tank is 48" long, by 24" deep, by 20 " tall. i was told it was a 75g, (traded for my 55) its alot taller and wider then my 55 though they are the same length (48 inch). so im not reall sure about it being a 75.
 
REALLY? What a nice lil supprise that would be. i going to have to doo some more research on tank sizes lol
 
is it possible to put a male ind female gt in a 75? or is that 2 small of a tank to have both in?

A regular 90 gallon is 48 x 18 x 24 , so your is more like a 100 gallon. Unless you wrote the dimensions wrong Length x width x Height

100 gallons based on the outer dimensions, it probably holds about 90 or so gallons. A standard 120 is 4x2x2, so your tank is a shorter version of that.

It should be fine for a GT pair.


I got 1/8" thick glass lids cut for my 75, it only cost $10.
