I am not a very good calculator, lol. Anyone know what size (gallons) is this tank? Can't seem to find a match for the dimensions.

32" Wd. x 28" Ht. x 18" depth.

Thank you...if you can help!
 
That would be 70 US Gallons or 58 Imperial.

You rock!!!

It is a used tank I am looking at buying, and the ad said 55G but that didn't seem right so I was curious what it really was. Hopefully their measurements are correct!

It is a tank only for $50-60, sound like a good deal?
 
If you ever need to know again, the formula is l x w x h (in inches) divided by 217.
 
Well that is good to know, as I am bad at remembering "formulas" but I will have it here, thank you I knew there was a way to figure it, lol.
 
CCXGT is right, 70 gallons... (32"/12)*(28"/12)*(18"/12)= 9.333 cubic feet and there's 7.5 gallons per cubic foot, so 9.333*7.5= 70 gallons
 
I am thankful for those who calculate well!

So I haven't really bought large tanks before and I am guessing this really is a good deal. I will try to pick it up. When it is listed as a 55G, not as much interest as if it was listed as 70G.

Well, the bigger the tank the easier it is to keep. No point in messing about with tiny 7G tanks.

I still don't get how it's 70 gallons, 32*28*18=16128. 16128/217=74.3225.....
 
Idk. Looked up the formula somewhere when I was thinking about getting a custom built aquarium.
