Hex tanks

[OohFeeshy]

Once I've reshuffled my bedroom I'm hoping to have enough space for a hex tank. Obviously this depends on how much weight/pressure my desk can hold though. Anyways, can anyone give a list of average hex sizes to gallonage? I'm not really interested in height.

PS. Don't try to get me to go rectangular, I have a lack of space and that. It'll proably be a gourami tank or something.

Depends, there are various shapes of "hex", so you can't give a simple reckoner.

>>> Don't try to get me to go rectangular

I won't have too, you'll discover the troubles with hex's yourself!

Lateral is right... you'll find out soon just what you don't want to know about hex aquariums

As for sizes.... from All-Glass Aquarium's webpage.

10 Hexagon 14x12x18
20 Hexagon 18x16x20
35 Hexagon 23x20x24

The only way a hex or cube tank like an Oceanic 30 is really nice is if you plan on lighting it with a Metal Halide pendant light.

Mmm... well, tomorrw if I have spare time I'll have a sort out of my room. Although I'dd probably end up with 3 gallon tanks and a squillion bettas
