Tank Volumes
Hello my lovely pretties,
This post was spurred by Couch Potatoes recent post regarding vinegar dosing.
When you are dosing or otherwise mucking about with your tank, do you go off the amount of water you have in your tank or by the tank volume?
Do many of you know how much water your tank contains?
For example, my tank is 180 L, but I have only about 130 L water in there.
So, if you are dosing, you'd be going off 130 L?
I would have thought one must go off the actual volume in there. However, there are situations where people might say you need a 50 gallon tank for this or that, but is my tank 45 gallons or 32.5 gallons?
I also wondered if historical values might be based on a presumed volume of water per tank volume, if this makes sense.
