How many gallons is this?
Someone I know has a red tail boa thats around the size of my big girl but their's is in a tank thats 36inches in length and 2ft wide and tall. I was wondering how many gallons this would be and how do you figure out the gallons?

huh, not really sure...but it's probably anywhere from a 29 tall to a 40 gallon tank.
Edit: But then again you said it's two feet deep too...might be a 55 gallon.

Re: How many gallons is this?
I think that site may be off a bit. I had back in the day a 20gallon and I put in the demensions and well they said it was only 18.7gallons. Then I put in my 200gallons demensions and they said it is only a 150 gallon

Take the dimentions of the enclosure and multiply them...
For example a 4'x2'x2' = 16 cubic feet
Now go to google, and in the search are type:
16 cu ft in gal
Google conversion calculator kicks in and gives you the result:
16 (cu feet) = 119.688311 US gallons
Easy... Also google can convert pretty much any unit into any other.

Re: How many gallons is this?
Simpler way. Take the LWH measurements in feet and multiply them together and then multiply by 7.5. Bingo Bango you have gallon ratings!
3 X 2 X 2 X 7.5= 90 Gallons!
