Aquarium Size Calculator

Calculate your aquarium's volume and fish capacity. Remember to account for substrate, decorations, and equipment which reduce actual water volume.

Volume Formula

Gallons = (L × W × H) / 231 (inches) | Liters = L × W × H / 1000 (cm)

Actual water volume is ~10-15% less due to substrate and décor. Water weighs 8.34 lbs/gallon.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many fish can I have?
Old rule: 1 inch of fish per gallon. Better: research each species. Active fish need more space. Consider adult size, not purchase size.
Is my stand strong enough?
Water weighs 8.34 lbs/gallon + tank + substrate. A 55-gallon tank = 500+ lbs. Most furniture can't handle this. Use proper aquarium stand.
