for those of you like me who have odd sized tanks-or buy them 2nd hand and dont know their capacity- here is a useful equation i got from a medication bottle (oddly its not on all of them) LxWxH/231= gallons

for those of you who use meters and liters i dont know the conversion -but liters are in cubic units of a base 10 system -so im guessing its just LxWxH
 
In these EU days, imperial gallons are the new rebel colonist gallons!
 
Yeah, Colin and Alan. It is time for your country to conform, no more driving on the wrong side of the road(dangerous!!) and using those silly standards

. I bet GB planted the standards in the US to weaken the logistics of future rebellions....

actually it's LxWxH (in cms) / 1000 (or just drop a zero in each number)
 
What did Russ mean by "rebel colonist gallons"? Did he mean "real" gallons?

No, it was a pun on our former status as a colony. Stay with us Dave!

    Hey everyone, just want a little advice. Its 55 - 60 celcius in my Salamanders tank. Hes curled up and tyring ti bury himself, Im assuming hes too cold. I was wondering if he would benefit from a heated rock cave (since he LOVES his cave) that I could set on low? I NEVER see him curled up and trying to bury himself unless his tank sits at 63 degrees celcius or lower. So I am assuming hes a little uncomfortable.

    He also seems a little sluggish, again, assuming hes cold. Having heating trouble with the new house right now. What do we think? Was thinking of grabbing this for him since its got very low, medium, and higher medium heat settings that exude heat downward inside the rock cave but ALSO exudes it UPWARDS outside of the rock cave, effectively keeping the tank itself a little warm. Seems like it miiiight be a little small for him though, my guy is about 7 inches from tip of his nose tothe tip of his tail. What do we think? https://www.amazon.com/Reptile-Simulation-Adjustable-Temperature-Tortoise/dp/B0CH1DPGBC
