this is the hex tank we picked up on craigs list. the stand was built by the previous owner. i thought it was a gorgeous stand and the setup was a steal for $25. he had it listed as a 25 gallon tank. i wanted to make sure of the size because a couple of people told me it looked bigger than that and i've also never heard of a 25 gallon hex tank. so how do i figure out how many gallons it is? i know i've seen ways to figure out box shaped tanks, would it work for this shape? it's 23.5" tall and each panel is 10" wide.


 
sure, but what measurements do i use for the length and width? should i measure the diameter?
