I'm trying to figure out how many gallons a tank will hold. I've tried
googling with no help. The tank is 28" x 18" x 16" and it's supposed to
hold 35 gallons. It just seems too small to me. In comparison I have a
tank that measures 13" x 12" x 18" and I'm sure it only holds around 12
gallons. Any help is appreciated.

RBM-
Both are correct...
~12.2 gallons & ~34.9 gallons
For reference the key for an easy calc is ...... 231 cubic inches per
gallon
12" x 13" x 18" = 2808 cbiuc inches
2808 cubic inches / 231 cubic inches per gallon = 12.2 gallons
