How Many Gallons?

[freerunner416]

Right I thought my tank was 40 gallons but don't no why i thought that!! Think it was what i was told when i bought one of them!! So how do i work out the proper amount of gallons that are in my tank!!

The first tank is L 2.2feet OR 65cm OR 25.5"
B 1.35feet OR 38cm OR 15"
H 1.3 feet OR 37cm OR 14.5"

The second tank is L 2feet OR 61cm OR 24"
B 1.25feet OR 36cm OR 14"
H 1.35 feet OR 38cm OR 15"

The two tanks are slightly bow (or panoramic) fronted. I don't know if that makes a difference to it.

Again any help would be appreciated

cheers C

Yeah, Chac is approxiamately right... a little rounding, but right.

Specifically, you take the dimensions in cm and multiply them then divide by 1000 for liters.
Or you take the dimensions in inches, multiply them and divide by 231 for US gallons.
