This is not a 290 gallon tank! I went and looked at it an hour away it is a 55 gallon!

That sucks. What did the person have to say??

I checked a gallons to liter calculator and 55 gallons comes out to a little above 208 liters. Might have been a typo but it's still not that close to 290.

it is a 55 gallon i drove and looked at it 48" by 12 standard 55 on a cheap metal stand. He said his uncle told him the measurments he has 2 about 6" oscar's in it right now. It has 2 regular hang on back filters and military bullets on the the top of the gravel haha I was not impressed if anyone needs a 55 he would probably go down quite a bit i have no use for it tho. as i just sold a 55 prior to looking at it
