Sly posted some conversion equations a while back and one of them was for tank volume in gallons:

Length x Width x Height (inches) x 0.0043 = Volume (Gallons)

With your measurements, I'd say you probably have a 125 gallon tank.

Ryan thanks for the help.

. . . and as Dennis just reminded us . . . . those outside tank measurements don't equal actual gallons inside the tank. Measure inside the tank length x water height x width divided by 231 to get actual gallons. On big tanks you will be surprised at the difference.

Hi Guys,

Why are there 2 diff. formulas ?

Thanks Ronald

One is a decimal one is a fraction. I learned LxWxH divided by 231 both ways work ;D

Thanks Carol
