I was thinking about this today...
My new setup is a waterbox 230.6. As such, when I'm talking to people I refer to it as my "new 230gal" reef tank. But in reality, that's the total volume of display+sump. The display itself is 167gal. Perhaps I'm being a bit misleading when I call it 230gal. Maybe I should start referring to it as my "(about) 170 gal reef tank"
Do you describe your tank by display tank volume or total volume?
