They look like Emperors to me
This is really starting to bug me... I keep seeing that a tank measuring 36" x 12" x 18" adds up to 28 gallons... however my tank has those same exact measurements, and it was sold to me as a 46 gallon bowfront. Should I complain to the store? Does the bowfront really add like 18 gallons to the volume? (I doubt it)Puffer_freak said:The PFK converter makes it 28gal! Nice find!
It might be the fact that some people use UK gallons and some use US gallons, but 46 US gallons still works out to about 38 UK gallons, not 28.David said:This is really starting to bug me...

Ah. Thanks inchworm, and sorry for hi-jacking, I was too lazy to start another post about this. Yeah i suppose my tank has measurements something like that, I know it is 36" long and when I measured how deep it was I got about 12", lemme go measure it again.Inchworm said:Hi DavidDavid said:It might be the fact that some people use UK gallons and some use US gallons, but 46 US gallons still works out to about 38 UK gallons, not 28.David said:This is really starting to bug me...

This is a little off topic, so if you have any other things to say, perhaps it should be on another thread. But, a 46 gallon (US) All-Glass bow front tank measures 36" x 15" x 20"
