95g wave front aquarium dimensions

[jrh]

Does anyone out there have a 95g wave front aquarium, or handy access to one? I have approval from the SO to put a tank in the living room, and I'm considering a normal 75g or the 95g wave front. Since it's going in such a public area, a certain amount of "eye candy" is great. It'll be a mixed tang tank, with black substrate, shellies, julies, and cyps.

The overall dimensions are 95g, 48" x 24" x 25"(L,W,H) (approx. 950 lbs. filled) but I'd also like to know the length of the short and long ends.

Thanks in advance!

I gave Aqueon a call, and it sounds like it's basically a 90g with one end a little fatter, and the other a little skinnier.

The dimensions work out to be 48 x (20.5 / 15.5) x 24

the dimentions you gave 48x24x25 comes out to 125g

That's what they say on their site, but I called and a helpful person gave me the side glass dimensions. So the actual tank dimensions are more like 48 x (20.5 / 15.5) x 24.

Yeah, it averages out to about 48X18X24, which is the standard 90 gallon dimensions. At the store where I work, there is currently a 90 gallon Surfline (the actual name the manufacturer gives this shape) with stand, lights and glass canopies for 50% off, of course that doesn't really help you since you're in VA

i dont think i would like like a tank with a smaller side. idk

I'm probably going to end up going with a standard 75g.

standard 75 will probably be a better idea. it will be more pleasing to look at since it wont distort the fish.
