About the 20-gallon bowfront tank

A 20-gallon bowfront aquarium holds roughly 75.7 liters of water at full volume. Bowfront tanks curve outward at the front, adding a little volume over a plain rectangle of the same footprint. Remember the usable water volume is a bit lower than the geometric volume once you add substrate, rocks and leave the water line below the rim. Enter your tank's real measurements above for an exact figure, then head to the stocking calculator before adding fish.
