Pond Volume Rectangular
Calculator

This is a simplified model: it applies a standard geometric or physical formula to the numbers you entered. Volumes assume a regular shape and an even average depth, and the kidney shape uses the common 0.45 × (A + B) × L area approximation. Chemical doses convert a target change into a product mass using the strength or label dose you enter, because the amount of active ingredient varies from product to product; they ignore pH, temperature, buffering, sunlight, bather load and existing chemical interactions. Heating uses Q = m × c × ΔT with c = 4186 J/kg·K and ignores heat losses to air, ground and evaporation; evaporation and cover figures use the rate you enter, not local weather. Aquarium stocking by surface area is a rule of thumb, not a biological limit. Always follow the product label and test the water before and after dosing, and consult a pool or aquarium professional for anything you are unsure about.
