    Has anyone ever used the 3reef's calculator for volume? I entered my tank demensions and it says I have a 90 gal tank. Is this right? My tank measures
    48"W x 25" H X 18" D and I was under the understanding that I have a 75 gal. Can anyone straighten my confusion out! Thanks, Luna

    The formula for determining the voulme is (length x width x height)/231 = number of gallons.

    Your tank is higher than an average 75G. I believe 75G are only 20 high.
