FWIW 96x24x24 = 8'x2'x2'.

to calculate the volume in gallons take 3/4th of the cubic feet move the decimal one digit to the right.

2'x2'=4'*3/4=3 *8'=24 move decimal 240G

How close was I? LOL

awesome build also.

Still takes me longer than just memorizing the standard tank sizes LOL. and if there are inches involved you are completely screwed lol. just remember a 2'x2' is 60 gallons and you could calculate faster than (LxWxH)x(3/4)x(10). In this case 4x60 = 240 boom done.
