Length x Width x Depth x 0.00433--for inches
Lenght x Width x Depth / 1000--for centimeters
That will give you the gallon measurements for any square/rectangular aquarium....
3.14 x radius(squared) x depth / 1000--in centimeters
For a round tank...
Hope this helps...GOOD LUCK!!!

To get US gallons purely degree the dimensions, width, and height in inches. Multiply mutually. this gives you cubic inches. Divide by potential of 231 to get gallons. The connection with gallons isn't suited, a fifty 5 gallon well-known is rather closer to fifty six gallons yet nonetheless reported as a fifty 5 gallon. however the mathematics gets you an approximate thought of what the tank could be considered and a reasonable thought of what number gallons the tank can rather carry. additionally, some inches could make a large distinction over an prolonged area. A 33 gallon long and a fifty 5 gallon look very comparable however the 33 gallon long is quite a few inches shorter (same length and width).

I think you can take the dimensions of the tank (in inches or centimeters or something) and then find a simple formula to convert that into volume.

multiply length x width x depth in inches then divide by 231
or
there are 7.5 gallons in one cubic foot of water

I found out by measuring height, width, and depth, multiplying them by each other, and then going to math.com where they have a section that converts cubic inches to gallons.
