Oh yeah, I will help pitch in too...I got a buck thirty six, half of a stick of chewing gum, and two tic-tac's.
you know what's sick? I gave that serious thought for a minute... buying a wholesale tropical fish business would be an interesting career change. something tells me that selling a business on ebay is a questionable practice though...
Holy hell i wish i was older and had 30Grand i would buy that and hier juan and all the people on mfk in florida

I honestly do not see $30,000 in inventory there. It looks to me like someone trying to recoup their losses after finding out that the fish industry is not all that lucrative. The place was not set up with costs in mind. They wasted a lot of money everywhere. The plumbing is an overkill. Inch and a half plumbing going into the tanks is a waste because half inch plumbing (pressure side) will supply those tanks. Additionally, factory drilled tanks are expensive. Japanese tanks can be had for a dollar a gallon (wholesale). They can be drilled on location for pennies on the dollar vs. paying someone else to do it. On top of that, my lowest cost for an overflow that would be suitable on those tanks is about two dollars. Anyway, the money that they have hanging from the ceiling and under the tanks is money flushed down the toilet. The sale of the tanks (and equipment) will not equal thirty grand.
For what it is worth, I just bought 120 gallons of breeder tanks for forty bucks. My new breeder pal is working on a lot deal of 30 gallon tanks. We are looking at about ten cents a gallon.
Hey Milky, If everyone here on MFK pitches in a buck thirty six, we might be able to make the guy an offer.

I dont get it. You think it's legit? well if so I hope an MFKer buys it and gives us discounts. im not gonna lie, i would love to go into that.

Yes it is legit. It is located here in North Orlando. It just is way over priced. I do not think the building is owned by either the business owner or the seller. Something tells me that the buyer can not stay there. The cost of moving it all to a new location will be staggering.
I would love to go into that too. There just isn't any money in it anymore.

What size do you want? I just picked up eight fifteen gallon tanks and we are looking into more 30g tanks than either of us can use.
