How Much Gallons is this tank?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
my question is did you intentionally not show the logo on the soda cans, or was it an accident. if they had paid you a sponsor fee, would you have showed the logo.
 
55, got two lid hoods, just like mine had, doesnt look to deep

I say its a 100 Gallon. 60x18x20 if its standard. See how I guestimated.

Going by that representation, the front panel dimensions are 50x17.5 (I just measured a soda can myself, and it is exactly 5"), so it's not a 110 or a 100. Unless it has some odd width, then I think it's a safe bet that it's a 55 gallon.
 
Well, to be exact, my Diet Dr Pepper can is 4 13/16" We must have different cans. Great pictorial representation!
 
You gais are failing to take into account the fact
that the soda can is 2" farther away than the tank
If we knew the overall distance from the camera to the glass
we might be able to resize the soda can to the appropriate proportion
and get an accurate measurement in sodacans
 
If you look at the picture there is a crush can on the top of it, thats 6" tall, and using that as a ruler, it comes to 24" tall. The can is 3" wide and using that it comes to 48ish" long. so that is definatly a 55

I was using Diet Coke can, but I just measured again and got exactly 4 11/16" this time.

No, soda cans are under 5" in height, plus they are using the height to guess the tank's length, not the width.

According to my measurement and calculation, Tank height = 4.6875" x 3.5 = 16.406225"

And length = 4.6875" x 10 = 46.875"

So the length is pretty close, but the height is a little off (most likely due to slight inaccuracy in walleye1's diagrammatic estimation; it should come out to be 21"), so I am pretty sure it is a 55 gallon (again, unless it has some odd width).
