Thnx

US gallons seems to be the standard unit used on this forum, if imperial gallons were used not only would we be confusing the americans (j/k) but the inch per gallon rule would allow people to keep far less fish.

I propose that every onr use litres as they are the same worldwide

Considering there are alot of Americans on this board, that wouldn't completely work. Litres would confuse us. Not because we're dumb or anything, just we don't ever use that measure.(Unless we're drinking soda )

It seems that most people use US gallons, and if they are talking about imperial gallons they say so.
