Best Answer

if its rectangular, often 24" x 12" x 12"

if its a 15 gal tall, often 20" x 10" x 17"

measurements are length x width x height in inches

exact measurements may vary slightly depending on the manufacturer due to glass thickness and whether they measure the inside of the tank or the outside of the tank.

There is no standard size for a 250 gallon aquarium, therefore an aquarium with a volume of 250 gallons could be any size where the dimensions, multiplied by each other, are equal to 250 gallons. In other words; there are many sizes that a 250 gallon aquarium could be.
