Not big enough, when compared to the ocean :(

By considerable measure, the largest known animal on Earth is the blue whale. Mature blue whales can measure anywhere from 75 feet (23 m) to 100 feet (30.5 m) from head to tail, and can weigh as much as 150 tons (136 metric tons). That's as long as an 8- to 10-story building and as heavy as about 112 adult male giraffes! These days, most adult blue whales are only 75 to 80 feet long; whalers hunted down most of the super giants. Female blue whales generally weigh more than the males. The largest blue whale to date is a female that weighed 389,760 pounds (176,792 kg). \n\n blue whale's head is so wide that an entire professional football team -- about 50 people -- could stand on its tongue. Its heart is as big as a small car, and its arteries are wide enough that you could climb through them. Even baby blue whales dwarf most animals. At birth, a blue whale calf is about 25 feet (7.6 m) long and weighs more than an elephant. And they do grow up fast: During the first 7 months of its life, a blue whale drinks approximately 100 gallons (379 liters) of its mother's milk per day, putting on as much as 200 pounds (91 kg) every 24 hours. An adult blue whale can eat more than 4 tons (3.6 metric tons) of krill, a tiny shrimp-like creature, every day. \n\nThis puts blue whales well above any known land mammal in terms of size. Most people believe that the largest animals to ever exist on Earth were the dinosaurs. However, one of the largest land dinosaurs, the sauropod Argentinosaurus, weighed only about 180,000 pounds (81,647 kg). That's little more than half the size of an adult blue whale. It makes a lot of sense that the world's largest animal would be a sea creature. Land animals have to support their own weight, whereas sea creatures get some help from the water.

In the SI system the same units are used to measure any volume irrespective of whether it's liquid, solid, or an enclosed void. There are no messy conversion factors (e.g. cubic inches per gallon etc.)\nThe base unit of length is the metre, so volume is cubic metres. So if your pool is 5 metres long by 4 metres wide by 1.5 metres deep, the volume is 5 x 4 x 1.5 = 30 cubic metres.\nFor a small indoor aquarium, you may prefer to use litres. The litre is a cubic decimetre (the cube of a tenth of a metre i.e. a thousandth of a cubic metre), or 1000 cubic centimetres.\nSo if your fishtank is 30 cm wide by 60 cm long by 40 cm deep, it would be 72,000 cubic centimetres or 72 litres.

Want to see something neat??\n\nType "19 gallons in cubic feet." into google.\n\nWorks for all kinds of conversions.

once you have the dimensions for the aquarium.\nyou'll want to find the volume of it.\n\nVolume = length x width x heigth\n\nconvert the volume into ounces (can be done using any website that does conversions)\n\nAnd divide that by 8...and you have your answer

Lets use ice for example, if you put ice into a cup of water, rather that ice sinks, floats, or melts, you will still have a weight of the ice plus the water.\n\nSo the answer is 11 pounds. Even though the fish floats, it is still excerting a pound of pressure on the tank of water.

1 liter is a cubic decimeter. There are 1000 dm3 per m3, 264.17205 gallons per m3 and 3.7854118 liters per gallon.\n\nVolume can be calculated by the equation:\narea*height. So if you have a nice symmetrical tank just try to calculate its bottom (or top) area and then multiply with the height.\n\nArea is calculated with either:\nside*lenght of the tank for squares or for circles:\nradius^2*pi\n\nIf your tank is neither cylindrical nor cubical you may have your work cut out for you. Determine which shape it resembles the most.\nA sphere:\nV=(4*pi*r^3)/3\n\nA prism:\nV=B*h\nwhere h is height and B is the bottomarea of the parallell trapeze:\nB=(h*(a+b))/2\n\nFor a pyramid:\nV=(B*h)/3\n\nFor a straight circular cone:\nV=(pi*r^2*h)/3\n\nIf all else fails just fill that sucker with water (if it´s not a monstersized tank). You need to check it for leaks anyway. Weigh it empty and subtract that from the weight of the tank full. 1 liter (dm3)= 1 kg.

It depends on the type of fish you are talking about. Generally its between 3" to 6".

Well common since would say at least 20 gal(certainly nothing smaller) but to find out for sure call the building code enforcment office in your town or county and ask...

They are big boned, literally that is part of the reason.  Relitive to thier size they arent "fat" you dont see whales with huge stomachs... they're just HUGE

aquarium - i'm full of fish

About 5 and a half litres, apparently - http://ask.yahoo.com/ask/20000612.html

More specifically, 1 gallon = 3.7854117 liters

One foot is equal to 12 inches so you could assume that the tank is also equal to (10 x 12) by (35 x 12) or 120" by 420". Then you take your number of gallons and divide by 120 x 420 or 50400 (I'm assuming you meant gallons per inch)

WHALE SHARK:\n\nbiggest shark and biggest fish \n\nit isn't a whale (whales are mammals, not fish) \n\ngrow to 45 feet long and 30,000 pounds, but average about 25 feet long \n\nfilters plankton from the water using "gill rakers" \n\nBASKING SHARK:\n\nsecond largest shark (about 30 feet long and 8,000 pounds) \n\nfilters plankton from the water using "gill rakers"\n\n\nGREAT WHITE SHARK:  \nThird largest shark on average\n\nmore attacks on people than any other type. \n\naverages 12 feet long and 3,000 pounds. \n\nunlike most sharks, it can lift its head out of the water.

My recommendation is steel, high pressure tank, and 80-100 cu ft.\n\nSteel is negatively buoyant when empty.  This allows you to wear less weight when compared to aluminum tanks.  Avoid neutrally buoyant aluminum tanks.  These are just aluminum tanks with an extra 5#s added to it.\n\nHigh pressure because you get more capacity for the size.\n\n80-100 cu ft since these are the most versatile and will most likely match your buddy.  While 80 cu ft hp tanks are great single tanks, if you plan on doubles, then 100 hp tanks are better since these will trim out better for most people.

Assuming that you mean a cylindrical tank, find its volume using the formula V=(pi)(r^2)(h).  To find the radius, plug the 12' circumference into the formula C=2(pi)(r).\n\nYou need to convert 38'5" to just feet.  \n\nConvert your answer, which will be in cubic feet, to gallons.  1 gallon=0.1336805 cubic feet.
