There are 2 formulas that give roughly the gallons of a pond:
LXWXDX7.8 gallons (right or 7.5?)
Circle? Anyone have that info?
Volume of right circular cylinder (circle, vertical sides, flat bottom)
V=pi*r^2*h. volume (cu. ft.) times 7.48 equals US gallons. 22/7 is close
enough for pi (355/113 if your finicky). Multiply by the semi-diameter,
then multiply by the semi-diameter again. Then multiply by the depth. This
is the volume of the pond. Multiply by 7.48 for gallons.
