Title: I did the right thing
Post by: LizStreithorst on June 17, 2019, 06:50:04 PM
Little by little I've been cutting down on the number of fish I have.  I am now down to 8 tanks with fish in the fish room, down from 23.  I do have the two planted tanks in my office.  In the fish room I'm trying to get down to just Discus plus the two tanks in the office.  WC is a piece of cake now.  Only the 120 long and a 100 gallon Discus need WC every day.

...then it's about 90 gal...... huh

...60 X 18 X 19 = 20250 / 231 = 88.821168

These are what I found off Google.

120 High 48 x 24 x 24
120 Long 60 x 18 x 26

Hmmm, I was told by the guy who gave them to me that they were 120's. They aren't as tall as my 100's but they are wider.  What does the math tell you about what size these really are?  I like them better than my 3 100 gallon tanks.  They seem to have more swimming room.

...great for plants too...light gets all the way to the substrate, and plenty of real estate for many plants...!
