I was surprised to see how small a container it would require.

Naturally it could be done with many different shapes, and it's impossible to list all of them here with their dimensions. But here's one example:

A cubic tank -- i.e. a tank with a square base and square sides ... length, width, and depth of the fill are all equal.

The required dimension for length, width, and depth is only about 2 ft 9.3inches.

This is just a large aquarium ... I wouldn't have thought that a fish tank this size holds so much water.

(33.3 x 33.3 x 33.3) = 36,926 cubic inches

at 231 in3/gallon, that's (36,926 / 231) = 159.85 gal. ---> pretty close.
