Calculate Water Weight (WW)







Formula

The formula to calculate the Water Weight (WW) is:

\[ \text{WW} = \left( \frac{(\text{L} - 2 \times \text{GT}) \times (\text{W} - 2 \times \text{GT}) \times (\text{H} - 2 \times \text{GT})}{231} \right) \times 8.34 \]

What is Aquarium Weight?

Aquarium weight refers to the weight of the water that an aquarium can hold when filled to capacity. It is an important factor to consider for the structural integrity of the stand and the location where the aquarium will be placed. The weight of the water adds significant load, and it is crucial to ensure that the supporting structure can handle this weight safely.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Water Weight:

\[ \text{WW} = \left( \frac{(48 - 2 \times 0.5) \times (18 - 2 \times 0.5) \times (24 - 2 \times 0.5)}{231} \right) \times 8.34 \approx 663.48 \text{ lbs} \]

The Water Weight is approximately 663.48 lbs.
