For a square: length x width x height.
For a cylinder: pi*r squred* height. That should get you a good estimate of volume. |

I would get a one gallon bucket and fill it til you see what you have. One gallon of water weighs 8.3 lbs. give or take a little being salt water.

I've seen a formula before that was length X width X height
and then something converts the cubic dimensions to gallons. |

Measurements in inches (Length x Width x Height) x 0.004329004329004
1 inch cube = 0.004329004329004 gallon. Or after you have your measurements you can plug it here: http://www.unit-conversion.info/volume.html Just make sure you have are using the correct unit of measure.

One of the things that I recall from a Six Sigma course that I attended was a problem solving skill, its called the 5 Why's
So, I'll ask 1. Why? 2. Why? 3. Why? 4. Why? 5. Why? Once you answer these everyone will know why you're asking this question.

Blue waffle has a good online calculator for live well assembly.
