A large aquarium has a length of 84 inches. It is located in a large basement that is properly heated and ventilated. The width should be close to 1/2 the length and the height ought to be 1/6 the length. If the fish tank requires that an aerator be placed every 28 inches along the back edge, how many aerators are needed. Note: an aerator is not placed in either corner.
