I don't know.

Actually I would be happier if the tank were larger, but I'm not sure just where the limits are. I've never dealt with a shape of tank like this before. The problem you MIGHT encounter would be inconsistant coating thickness.

Believe it or not, if you experience a problem you MIGHT do better with a cathode that does not cover the entire the whole internal circumference. Maybe an Al bar running the entire depth, with LESS than the surface area of the work. I know this sounds weird. Lines of force (what they call it in electroplating) MAY dominate due to the shape.
