hi-
I have built a few tanks, and from what i have seen on different websites the formula for finding volume is... length times width times height then divided by 312 equals total gallons.
So i am figuring you have some where around a 120 gal. tank on your hands.
 
If you put those numbers in the calcluator on the home page of RC, it comes up 162 gallons. My 75 is the dimensions of The2ofus. I have seen stock 150's and they are usually 48x24x30

The standard dimensions (meaning if it is not a custom job) on most tanks are 18" or 24" in width. I'm assuming you purchased the tank used, but do you know if it was custom built?

A standard 75g is... 48" x 18" x 20" Tall

A standard 90g is... 48" x 18" x 24" Tall

A standard 120g is... 48" x 24" x 24" Tall

A standard 4' 150g tank is... 48" x 24" x 30" tall

My 120 is 48x24x24. If your tank is that deep, you'll want some pretty decent lighting for it. Def. not a 75 gallon though.
