I have two tanks that I am looking at getting. Both are by tenecor. the is 180 gallon 72" x 24" x 24" and the other is 185 gallon 60"x24"x30". I need some help figuring out which tank would be best for my pacu. I have to figure out how much space the tank will take up so I can start to figure out how to redesign living spaces in potential homes.
Which tank?

Imo the 180 has a better footprint. hight doesent matter all that much (with most fish) with the 180 you get a foot more and its just as wide.
I'm gonna say the 6 foot tank would be better for the pacu. The 24 inch width in both gives the longer tank with more surface area an advantage, although the extra height might be good for a tall fish like a pacu. I would try for something bigger for pacu truly.
^ agreed. height isn't as important as width and the width of both tanks is 24". go with the longer of the 2 tanks
