Depends how deep they are! ;) Here's an aquarium volume calculator for you (don't worry about the glass thickness n that shizz, just fill in the dimensions): http://www.angelfish.net/tankvolcalc.php

o thanks brotha, yah dude looks like the 24x24x18 would be the best tank for my situation now just to find one eh

I'm a sista!! ;)

24x24x18" is fairly common. Even easier to find is a 60g cube which is 24x24x24". Personally, I find the height a pain in the butt to rockscape, but it's totally doable. Both of those would be a great match for your light. Plus the 24" width is perfect for fitting some T5s or VHOs for actinics. :)

My new tank is a 24"x24"x30" and cost my $500 just for the glass, but it is 12mm tempered Starphire with eight holes. I made it 30" tall but only plan to put in 26" of water and I will be running a 250w HQI with two T5's on the side in a custom canopy. Should have some pictures going up soon. :wink:
