I put those dimensions into an aquarium volume calculator and it looks to be around 90 gallons. This would be with nothing in it of course. After you add rocks, gravel, and so on, the number of gallons you can put in the tank obviously drops.

Oh,and I would put mbuna cichlids in there (could have a really nice cichlid tank with 90 gallons) - but I am biased.
