Its actually very small. I have it running in my 10 gallon sump on my nano 29 gallon tank. The depth is 8 inches which looks like the minimum required from what little I read thus far. The total volume of sand is about 1.25 gallons with a surface area of about 40 square inches. I think Anthony mentioned a 5 gallon bucket would be good for a 90 and would only probably have about 4 gallons of sand in it. I’m not sure of the surface area, but I think its something like 110 square inches, so being about 1/3 the size of a 90, I’m hoping to have something adequate.
