How big is your tank?!?  I have a 66CF tank and both fit fine with room to spare.  They're both adjustable.  I probably could have fit a tank 2in in diam bigger in the carrying straps just by adjusting the velcro.  Not sure about the protective sleeve, but it didn't seem too tight.

Mine is a 45min tank, so it's probably smaller.  I have a hard time imagining that the strap wouldn't fit a much larger tank though.  I have probably 2-4in of over lapping material on the velcro.

A 60 min tank is usually in the 88cu ft range +/-.

I know,right? Didn't fit though...had to send it back...I'm gonna go ahead and look up JoeB and see what he's got
