    It depends on width and height...as well as length... 5' is an less common size for some reason, 6' seems to be the next size up from 4'.

    Here's a good listing of tank sizes...then you just need to convert gallons to litres...

    25 g Tropical Tank - Celestial Pearl Danio/Mixed

    Multiply the length, the width, and the height (in inches) then divide by 232...this will give you approximate gallons.

    Sorry, I'm not one for metric conversions...
