At least I'm pretty sure it's 75g. Either way, I'm new to the hobby sans a few betta fish in my youth. I've read hexagons are pretty limited in suitable species and, being a beginner, I'll be even more limited most likely. What fish can I house in it? And can I cycle the filter in my turtle tank? I won't even be attempting to set this thing up until a few months from now as I'm moving soon and I need to clean it out (was dropped off tonight) on top of having other things to take of. So it'll be put together slowly and give me time to research. 
 
What are the dimensions? 
 
It would be best to cycle this filter on its own. What filter is it, by the way?
 
You'll probably want to avoid deeply bodied fish such as angels, but you could most likely have good schools of tetras or rasboras or something, corydoras, kuhli loaches, something like that for the bottom, just nothing too huge. 
 
I don't have a filter for it yet. I was thinking a canister filter when I can start working on it. A rough measurement is 28"L x 16"W x 28"H. 
 
Can you give panel measurements? That's calculating at 54 as a rectangle. 
 
Canister filter would probably be best for this tank if it's in that kind of stand. It looks neat, though. Is the tank built into it or does it come out?
