volume of water in a tank

[scott bowler]

hey guys can some one tell me how to work out volume of my tank. 6x2x2 and looking at a 5x2x2 and a 8x2x2 pls thank you scott :oops:

convert inches to cm, then its length x width x height then divide by 1000 then you got your volume in litres

dw bout it, happens to everyone, i forget my times tables now n then

[Mattzilla]

i am hopeless with those calculations so a volume calculator helps big time

[wickedglass]

remember to subtract the volume of driftwood and gravel and rocks and mediaeval fairy castles to get the true volume of your tank (just in case you're trying to work it out for medication) ... ;)

also measuring from the insides "ID"of the tank for an even more accurate measure :)
