I use this for calculating water volume.

Tank Volume Calculator

Make sure to measure out your sump as well. For height, use the current water height both for your DT and sump. Once you got that calculated, its basically down to estimation on how much to deduct based on your rocks and sand bed. Its better to err on the lesser dosage than overdose.

Take out carbon if using any form of medication that needs to be dosed to the tank.
