The amount of water in the tank decreases by 10 gallons every 3 hours. There are 24 hours in a day, so the amount of water in the tank decreases by 10/3= <<10/3=3.33>>3.33 gallons every hour.
After 6 days, the number of hours is 6*24= <<6*24=144>>144 hours.
So the total amount of water that decreases after 6 days is 3.33*144 = <<3.33*144=479.52>>479.52 gallons. Answer: \boxed{479.52}.
