Changing my tank too dirt.

The tank is a 100 gallon.
4x2x2, someone said to me once for dirt the rule is 1 liter per gallon
so i thought a mix of 50 litre of each soil would do..hope he was right ¬.¬
goes in the garden any extras.
 
100 uk gallons = 450 litres and 100 us gallons = 390 liters, so 100 litres of substrate is way to much.

if you want 3 inches (probably somewhere about right if you presume you will have some slopes on it with higher parts etc) of dirt you would need 48inch (4foot) x 24inch (2foot) x 3 inchs = 3456 cubic inches = 56 litres roughly
 
oh so ive ordered double the amount :/ looks like ill have to get planting 😛

Does anyone know how much kg of sand ill need to cap it with aprox 2cm.
