I keep seeing 120P or 90P in descriptions of tanks. I think the 120 or 90 describe the length in centimeters but what does the P denote?

Thanks

Jim

Googling that yields nothing useful.

Anyone else?

Sometimes, it's just a name.

I think it stands for panoramic.
F tanks, like the 60f or 45f stand for flat
and the taller ones, like the 90h stands for high.

P = Perfect or Proportional?

i think this is correct.
40b = 40 gal breeder
20L = 20 gal long
