Hi Scott,
Wondering if you would recommend the Double Cone 180 or the 200 for such a tank.
The display is 200x55x60cm which equates to 660liter volume or 173 gallons.
HOWEVER, this is 12mm glass and water level is about 5cm from the surface which means actual internal volume should be 197,6x52,6x55 which is 572 liters or 150gallons.
I believe most people take outside dimensions of the glass as they like to feel they have a bigger tank, but the difference is very big (almost 100 liters in this case).
So what volume should I take into account as far as skimmer size is concerned: 173 or 150 gallons?
Thanks!
