    Gallon calculator
    Does anyone have a link to a gallon calculator? The one I normally use the site is down and I can not access it and I am looking at buying a tank and would like to know the gallons it holds.

    20 Gallon Long Planted Aquarium

    81 gallons and some change is what I figure. So it's not really that great of a deal.

    Here are a few interesting calculators depending on what you need them for:

    Aquarium System Calculator (Calculate plumbing wet/dry refugium main tank minus the live rock... etc)

    Aquarium System Volume Calculator

    Then to calculate tanks and convert units
    *Removed*

    Hope that is what you were looking for.

    I saw a pretty nice 125 gallon tank with wood stand for $150.00 a few days ago.

    Not a great deal, but not a bad one either.... Does anything come with it? I mean a stand/hood/filters would do much good for the price.... glass only, ehhhhh

    Tank only no stand, filters, lights nothing and I am a firm believer in $1 a gallon for used tanks.
