try going on the conversions button on the top and type those mesurements in and see what comes up.....since u have a bowfront you will have to add a few extra gallons but it will get u in the ballpark of how many gallons it is!!!!!!! hope it helps!!!!!

This is what I do to approximate it (which works well enough in the majority of circumstances). If you want to be more accurate, the calculator posted above works well.
