hey guys, can anyone tell me how many gallons is my tank? my tank is 48x18x18(well, it's 17.5) inches. i used the aquarium gallon calculator and it says 65. but wht do u guys say?
 
thanks man. it made unsure cuz i was checking on other forums and see some tanks tht has the same dimensions as me and they said it's a 90.
 
The aquarium calculator here is as accurate as the measurements put in... So yeah, i guess other people were maybe told their tank were "x" gallons but never bothered to really double check / confirm :)

True gallons is inside measurements. Displacement gallons is outdide measurements. It makes a big difference on larger tanks.

I see this on CL/kijiji all the time. Its like people forget what they bought and just type in the outer dimensions into a calculator.

yeah, i thought mine was a 120, and i was surprise tht it's only a 65 which pretty much looks big. and wht's the difference between the US gallons and UK gallons?

Gallons (UK) are bigger than US gallons. UK is 4.5 litres US is approx 3.8 litres
