Knox.... You said in the other topic that in UK gallons a Rio 180 was 47.5 gallons, so I got all confused!

I Use US Gallons ( dont know why. )

To go from litres to imperial gallons is just as easy. I typed in "180L in Imperial gallons" and got a Google result of "= 39.5944483 Imperial gallons" Site specific converters are not really needed when we have tools like that wherever we go.

They are different because they are based on a different set of measurement standards. The units diverged hundreds of years ago and nobody ever chose to change either one to make them match. It is more a case of historical measurements than a desire to have different units. Even the size of a liquid ounce is different so you can't just use a ratio of the number of ounces in a gallon. A US ounce is slightly bigger than an imperial ounce but there are less of them in a gallon. I sometimes think the only similarity is that the US chose to keep calling their units by the same name.
