my bad theres 2 12" and a 34 across the front?

I thnk I got it, the 12" pcs are 90* to the 36", and the 34" is 45 across the front. Basically, a 36" cube, with a 24" angle section cut off front.

So my calculations equal approx 70 gal

Thanks for the quick replies everyone but it is around 100 gallons. Here is a pretty awesome link to a calculator that will calculate different styles of tanks..enjoy

I drew it up on Autocad and came up with 70g, so I would think that calculator is wrong

I get 100 gallons too using the 90 degree angle between the 12s and the 36s. im not sure where that 22.5 comes in but that would yield a totally different shape as none of these angles are 22.5
