Most big box retailers probably just use the outside dimension and then round up making the tank sound bigger for sure.

Tanks looking good Derrick. Are you dosing any additives? Mg, Calcium or trace elements?

I recently picked up a Profilux 2ex controller and hope to get a GHL 4 pump dosing set-up as well. Just cant seem to keep my levels up to par without a lot of work.

I found it to be fairly easy, I downloaded the PC program and just played around with it. Slickfork as one as well so getting help with it is easy.
