It is just a 50G long, still a 50G though.
(36" x 18" x 19")/231=53.3 gallons
(48" x 15" x 17")/231=53 gallons

If you enter "aquarium volume calculator" in to Google ..
You'll get a bunch of hits that will take you to web pages that will do the calculation for you.

Unusual dimensions, but like Ed13 says, still 50gals...

The tank needs to be measured using the inside dimensions. Most manufacturers quote tank volume sizes using the outside measurements. A "50 gallon" tank does not hold 50 gallons of water.
