5x2x1.83= 18.83 ft^3 = about 140 gallons
That's a nice size tank.

First, I would convert the measurements to metric in centimeters. Then calculate the volume (length x width x height)
That will give you the volume in cubic centimeters. Since 1 centimeter = 1 milliliter of water, you will also have the amount of water it will hold in milliliters. Then convert your milliliter number back to Standard in ounces or gallons . 2.54 cm=1 inch
3.785 liters = 1 gallon
(You can do the math)

i don't know a mathematical equation but I have one that is about 3'x1'x2' and it holds about 50 gallons, so I would say your would hold about 80 gallons

You have a real issue with calculating volume and doing conversions, don't you?

Unless you have a hole in it somewhere it should hold all of it.
