My tank (plastic) uses 250 ml too. However, 250 ml is the minimum needed,
the tank will take 400 ml and a bit without overflowing, so I can use
diluted developer and still have enough stock solution in the mixture. The
problem is with the 2 reel tank, it uses 500 ml but it still only takes the
same additional 150 ml as the one reel tank before overflowing.
