Right well since I've been working at my new workplace, it's made me want a bigger tank :(

I did think a 3ft x 2ft x 2ft tank, but since finding out how many litres that would hold, it would be far too much. Mainly due to my floorboards not being able to hold it.

There is a fish tank at work which holds 150 litres and as an AquaTropic but it is a tiny bit too big, mainly because I think the door handle will touch the glass.

So I was thinking getting the aquatic shop I work for to get one custom built for me, or if anyone knows of tanks that are of decent size. I know that I don't want a Fluval or a Juwel, that is set in stone.

Size wise I'm probably looking at 36" x 18" x 18" or 24". Can anyone tell me what litre the tanks would be for them?

I've found a website that makes custom tanks, 36" x 18" x 18" with 8mm glass, backing for the left, right and back, with OptiWhite front £194.03 without a cabinet, filter, heater and lights :/

So I may just see what my work place can do, as I should get my discount on it to push the price down.

My Eheim 2213 External should probably be able to handle a tank that size, I also have a heater un-used that can handle a tank from 130litres to 150litres.

So yeah, any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
36x18x18= 191ltr/50us gal
36x18x24= 255ltr/67us gal
