SamH Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 200cm x 36cm = 7200 x 30cm = 216000 216 Litres You're welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phoenix44 Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 minus, the gap at the top of the tank where most don't fill water, stones, gravel, (fish even) :lol: , plants, accessories etc etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 200cm x 36cm = 7200 x 30cm = 216000 / 1000 = 216L/150 Phoenix Litres :lol: Maybe he wants it as a full, bare bottomed breeder tank? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkles Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 the tank calculator on here is great, its on the homepage under technical. Why bother working the maths out when it can do it for you, and tell you the likely weight too :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 I just do it all on a calculator and doesn't 1 litre weigh about 1 kg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
twinkles Posted September 26, 2009 Report Share Posted September 26, 2009 yup, but it tells you the glass weight (average) too. I find it just as quick as opening my calculator so i've got into the habit of using it. Good if you're thinking about building or dividing up a tank too, cause you can change one of the inputs around quickly to see how much space it would give you.

twinkles Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 lol, true true i learnt all my maths at school, but there seems to be very little call for it in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamH Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 200cmx30cmx36cm divided by 1000 = 216L 200cm x 36cm = 7200 x 30cm = 216000 / 1000 = 216L/150 Phoenix Litres :lol: Great minds think alike! So a 2ft cube would be 60cm x 60cm = 3600 x 60cm = 216000 / 1000 = 216L What a coincidence, I just bought a 2ft cube... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discusguru Posted September 27, 2009 Report Share Posted September 27, 2009 I calculate using 20x3x3.6 No big numbers and don't need calculator. So for a 2ft cube will be 6x6x6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
