How much will this aquarium hold?

[hellow]

I was looking at aquariums for my new tank on http://www.glasscages.com/ and i found one listed as 70 Wide, yet i have no clue what that means. The dimensions of it is 48 x 24 x 13 (length X width X height). How many gallons would it approx. hold?

The 70 indicates that the tank holds 70 gallons, and "wide" indicates that the tank has a wide footprint.

Ah, ok, thanks.

Tanks are usually described as wide or tall. Wide is left to right and tall refers from top to bottom
