New Tank On The Way!

[heavenly_d3vi1]

Firstly.. Im soooo excited!!! I had to get rid of my old tanks when I moved house and didn't have room for them My aunty offered me a lil 15 gallon tank, and altho I wanted to jump at the chance I just knew it would mean sooner or later having to build an extension to house my urge to upgrade!!!

so, Ive not even picked up the tank from my aunty yet.. and already the upgrade urge has got to me and I've just bought a 330L tank LOL!! (Now all I have to do is sell me sofa, tv, stereo and a couple of the kids to fit in ha)

Quick question tho.. the description of the tank says 330L, but.. when I put the given dimensions into the tank calculater it comes up with 417L, so what am I doing wrong!?
Dimensions are 1207mm lenght x 477mm width x 745mm hight

The water height will have a top limit line that you shouldn't fill above. 330l will be the water capacity, not the tank capacity.

Ahh that makes sense! I thought it would be something real simple that I was overlooking! Thanks
