Lily Rose Corner Tank No4?

[LilyRose Tank]

I don't know what litre it is, its just big, should I take advantage of this offer? Anyone got one simular that can give me an idea of gallon size

it looks lush I shall be going to see it later today hopefully.

looks nice, how much are they asking for it?
you can always do away with the UGF ( chances are it will fall apart when you take it out anyway),either add an internal or see if an external will fit thru the hood

for the right price its a very nice tank tho

£100! its a steal, thats why i want it. I've spent so much on the three tanks i have now this one will come in handy as a coldwater goldfish tank. The current owner doesn't know what litreage it is! so I hope to take measurements later to work out what size filter i would need, as I would rather have a non underwater gravel filter. I've heard they are not that great.

Going by the picture i would guess it is around 180 litres.

I was guessing 220. but I hoe to know better when I go see it. The door looks like 18 inches and the two sides look to be about 6 inches each, so at least 2 1/2 foot on bow front. if put a right angle triangle on it and say its light switch height I may be able to mathematically work it out. Plus I bought a filter which can manage 40G so I'm hoping its the right size, if not anyone got any advise on filters for this size tank, and what size heater....300W?

the tank has a triangular back as you would expect from a corner unit..lol... and a pentagon front, and after frying my brain in A level maths calculations, we realised its probably a 180 litre tank ( well done there ) so its being delivered tomorrow,,,Tank no 4! Now have to think about restocking alltanks again , A full rethink haere. ( I already bought a 40gallon filter hehe) so we should be able to set it up, once I rearrange the house!

Agree, I would not struggle with the UGF. WD

Your heater should be big enough for that tank but the filter may be slightly smaller than you need. A 50 US gallon tank is close to 180 litres.

hi , its a 150w heater, the tank is 120 litres ( calulated wrong! *blush*)
so should be ok, plus the filter can manage 40G and the tank is 27G so its overfiltering....so its all ok. I've just turned it into cory tank, they love it
