When I plug those dimensions into the tank volume formula (LxWxH)/231, I get 359 gallons. WOW!!!
Is the 48" height difficult to work with at all?

You got a big family out there!:D Are you going to upgrade to a bigger tank? Once your fishes reach maturity, you'll need something humongous to hold them all. Love your triggers and Tesslata....and pity on yellow tang....

LOL, dont mean to sound harsh, but, ARE U INSANE?!?! I could take a bath in that thing, and sink all the way in, and have room to move around. It is HUGE! I mean, so the fsih will get larger, but you really think that they will outgrow that monster? It IS possible i suppose, but still, to me, looking at it, it dont seem likely.:joy:

i agreepeople keep triggers in like a 125 for a long time, and they turn out fine and that's 359 gallons, that is a good sized tank! for almost anything

Oops! I didn't know the tank is 359g. Then it's a totally different story. Your fishes will be very happy in the tank of that size. :) The reason I asked you if you're going to get a bigger tank is because of Tesselata. Not only does it get really big, but they are quite aggressive. I was worried he might terrorize other fishes (even triggers) in a confined space.

What I want to know is........What's it like to put your hand in there?? Do you need a spotter to keep an eye out?:D
