Size of Bass Traps

Hi all, I'm new here but not inexperienced with audio/video.
At present I have a room dedicated to HT and Two channel sound.
The room measures 15.5ft wide X 20ft long X 9ft ceilings. I use Legacy Focus speakers (3 12" drivers in each cabinet) As you might imagine the bass gets a little out of hand at times.
I have first reflection treatments, but need to build Bass traps. I have read on these but one thing I can't find...does the internal volume matter past a certain point? I plan to build two 17" dia tubes (that's O.D.) but what about height? I'd like to make them floor to ceiling (9ft tall) is there anything wrong with this? Thanks Kenny
