Forum rules
Dear convert-me.com forum visitors,
Our forum has been available for many years. In September 2014 we decided to switch it to read-only mode. Month after month we saw less posts with questions and answers from real people and more spam posts. We were spending more and more resources cleaning the spam until there were less them 1 legitimate message per 100 spam posts. Then we decided it's time to stop.
All the posts in the forum will be available and searchable. We understand there are a lot of useful information and we aren't going to remove anything. As for the new questions, you can always ask them on convert-me.com FaceBook page
Thank you for being with us and sorry for any inconveniences this could caused.

sarah wrote:hello, my name is sarah from calgary canada. i just aquired a fish tank that is 3ft (36inches) long by 1 1/2 ft thick (18 inches) and 2ft(24 inches) deep. How many gallons is it. Thanks for the help. :oops: :D
Imperial or US gallons?
The volume of a rectangular solid is V = lwh
so V = 36" x 24" x 18 " = 15552 in³
NOTE: The volume of water it will hold is based on the inside, not the outside dimensions)
A US gallon is 231 in³, so 15552/231 = 67.3 US gallons.
An Imperial gallon is 277.42 in³, so 56.1 Imp. gallons.
I thought Canada was metric? (It's 255 L)
