Masukkan ukuran akuarium Anda untuk mendapatkan volume tepat dalam galon dan liter sebagai dasar penebaran, dosis, dan filtrasi.
Volume saja tidak menjaga ikan tetap hidup; volume menjadi dasar untuk empat keputusan penting.
Jumlah ikan yang dapat ditampung tangki bergantung pada volume, luas permukaan, dan spesies, bukan hanya aturan satu inci per galon.
Gunakan kalkulator penebaranFilter dinilai berdasarkan berapa kali volume tangki diputar setiap jam. Kesalahan perkiraan membuat limbah cepat menumpuk.
Cara kerja perkiraanPerawatan dan penghilang klorin diberikan per galon atau liter. Volume yang tidak akurat menghasilkan dosis yang tidak akurat dan terkadang berisiko.
Baca metodologiPergantian air mingguan sebesar 20–30% dihitung dari volume sebenarnya, bukan angka yang tercetak pada kotak tangki.
Rencanakan berdasarkan penebaranIt's exact for rectangular and cylindrical tanks, which cover most common sizes. For bow-front, hexagon, or corner tanks, use the rectangular option with your tank's widest measurements as a close estimate — actual volume will run 5-10% lower because of the curved or angled panels.
Measure the inside dimensions if you can reach them — glass thickness on larger tanks can shave off a few percent of volume. If you can only measure the outside, that's fine for planning purposes; just expect the real number to be slightly lower.
Manufacturer sizes are rounded and measured to the rim, but you never fill a tank completely to the top. Substrate, decorations, and equipment also displace water. Expect your real, usable volume to run 10-20% below the labeled size.
Use whichever matches your tape measure or spec sheet — the calculator converts either way. US tank manufacturers almost always list inches; most tanks sold outside the US are labeled in centimeters.
A small mismatch is normal and usually comes from rounded dimensions, glass thickness, or a tank shape that isn't a true rectangle or cylinder (bow-front, hexagon). If the gap is large, double-check that height was measured from the inside bottom to the rim, not the outside of the stand.
This calculator gives the tank's true geometric capacity to the rim, while manufacturers often round down or quote the volume at a safe fill line. A 10-15% difference between the two is typical and doesn't mean either number is wrong.
Volume is the input every other decision depends on: how many fish you can safely keep, how much water to change weekly, and how strong a filter or heater you need. Try the stocking calculator next, or browse the fish guides.
