OK this is gonna sound like a real dumb question but i'm stuck...

How do I find out how many UK gallons a tank is? Do I multiply the dimensions... width, height, length???? Could someone please tell me how I do it... :help:

& yes.... I did fail maths at school :rolleyes:

Thanks in advance... :)

Im not familier with UK gallons. If you meant gallons to litres Rbishop has your link. If you are looking for how to tell how many gallons a tank is by its measurements, its LxWxH/231=Volume in gallons. thats length times width times height, then devide by 231 to get actual gallons.

Man Did I Get My Measurements Wrong, I Think Mine Is A 50 Gallon Tank, No Wonder Everyone Shouted At Me When I Thought I Had A 24 Gln Tank Considering My Stock!!!!
