Good price for tank?

Today I went to the flea market, but didn't bring very much money or a large care. Naturally I saw two different 55-gallon (long) tank set ups with hoods, lights, and filters - both for $125. I had to pass... but I did get an aquarium with screen lid for $20. It's larger than a 20, but obviously smaller than the 55. I knew it was a good price, and I'm sure I can find someone that needs it when my turtle outgrows it and I move up. Since I don't have it with me at the moment to measure, what size do you think it is?

It could be a 29, 30, or 40. Those are common sizes between 20 and 55. But it's hard to say without any dimensions. Awesome deal for only $20, though. Does it hold water?

They claimed it did. I decided to risk it. If it doesn't, I'll see if anyone I know that keeps non-aquatic reptiles wants it. :)
