I bought this aquarium at a yard sale and are trying to figure out how many gallons it is .

The dimensions are 36 inches long by 21 high and 12 inches wide to the the start of the bow a the bow is 3 inches total so 15 wide.

[FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]To calculate the capacity of any enclosure, multiply the height x width x depth, in inches.
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]This gives you the total cubic inches (cu. in.).
[/FONT]
[FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]Divide that figure by the following factor to get gallons:[/FONT]​
[FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]231 cu. in. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]= US gallons [/FONT] [FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]277.4193 cu. in. [/FONT] [FONT=Arial, Verdana, sans-serif]= Imperial gallons [/FONT]
