Looked to be about 12 feet long. Was definitely 3 feet wide.

Any guesses on gallon size?

Enough for a clown fish or two.

I agree though upwards of 700 probably. A general rule for gallons for square/rectangle is length x width x depth x7.5 using feet for measurement.
 
@ChrisfromBrick I had planned to go to RAP NY this year as I did last year, but the dates overlapped with a previously planned vacation. I was bummed that I couldn't go, and would have liked to say hello to you 🙂

Do you have any more pictures of the event?
 
Guessing 144" long x 30" wide x 36" tall. About 625 gallons actual water. 30" wide since that's the max size that can fit through a regular door.

Probably 1200 lbs empty if it's glass. A 10-12 dude job to move that thing anywhere.
 
Roughly 675-700g is my guess!

this was actually at the turtle back zoo in NJ yesterday. Wasn’t RAP.

I’d love to meet all of you guys own of these days.

Was that turtle place right in the area where the RAP NY was going on? I would love to see that!

Last year I did go to RAP NY, and in the gigantic mall that's nearby has a small public aquarium. My wife and I did the VIP tour and saw behind the scenes where they prepare foods and QT new animals, etc. It was decent, I was hoping to do it again this year, but I made a mistake in scheduling. Next year dude!

Just a few pics from that aquarium near the RAP NY/NJ Facility, 2025:
