Example: If your fountain basin is 3 feet long, 2 feet wide, and 1 foot deep: 3×2×1×7.48=44.88 gallons For Circular Basins: Use this formula: Volume=3.14×Radius(ft)×Depth(ft)×7.48 Example: If your basin has a 2-foot diameter (1-foot radius) and is 1.5 feet deep: 3.14×(1×1)×1.5×7.48=35.3 gallons Here's a list of tools and materials I personally use on a daily or weekly basis.
