Is it just me, or is it frustrating to see a tank up for sale where they give the gallons, but then don't give the dimensions?  >:(

Are we supposed to be psychic?

I skip the ad and go on to another.

I wonder how many tanks haven't sold because the seller hasn't bothered to provide the dimensions...

Many tanks have standard dimensions, here is a reference: http://ovas.ca/index.php?page=53

You can always contact the person who is selling the tank to confirm the dimensions.
be aware of the green side

Nice, link, but in looking around it varies by manufacturer, or the seller doesn't remember it correctly.

My point is, I shouldn't have to go after the dimensions. They're the one with something to sell and by not posting ALL relevant information, they're opening themselves up to pointless exchanges, or that their add doesn't get considered.

Much easier to consider a tank for sale where they do provide the dimensions.
