Oh ok it was giving to me awhile ago. I need to find one fast part of the glass cracked up the side and the sump is leaking ahhhhh.

I think it sounds like the last 10 gallon listed. What do you all think?

Just go to any local pet store and they should have them. The one I worked at in Tacoma sold them for $10 all year round. Any Petco or Petsmart would probably have the best deal.

That site is wrong grahamsn. It is a 15g tank. Take a look at the 10g leader. It's 20x10x12. How could you have the same volume in a tank that is 4" longer and 2" deeper and the same height? Find an aquarium volume calculator and put in your measurement, I'm sure you'll get roughly 15g.

Heres a link to a volume conversion.
Figure the cubic inch of the tank and convert it to US Liquid Galons. Looks to be a 15 gal tank

Ok thanks for the info. Think the glass will last for the night? I put silicone to stop the leak on the crack.

A easy method for determing tank volume is:
lenght x height x width in inches, then divide by 231

12.5" x 24" x 12" = 3600. divide that number by 231 which gives you tank volume,, 15.5 gals.
