36x12x12 = 22 gallons

30x12x12 = 19 gallons.



As for glass tank with acrylic baffles... don't do it. Acrylic and glass don't bond well due to lack of adhesive made for both. You either need acrylic adhesive or glass adhesive. Use glass partitions you can get cut at any glass shop.

This is learned earlier in the summer while trying to get ideas for an internal overflow.
