I bought a rectangle 20 gallon and when I put it side by side to the 10 gallon, there was only about one and half inches difference in width. The 20 gallon is just deeper. Next time I buy a tank, Im going to go for a different shape so I can get more width.
Posted: Tue Dec 06, 2005 9:16 amit depends on if you get a 20 gallon High tank or a 20 gallon long tank. There's a significant difference. There may only be a difference in height with the 10/20 but that's 10 more gallons of water or well even if it's 5 gallons since you don't fill it to the top, that's a lot of water difference for a turtle.
