I want to know how much you guys would pay for the following: 220 gal Perfecto tank 5 yrs old, with (4) 1.5 in bulkheads and (4) 3/4 in bulkheads. No stand or anything else just tank. The tank it self seems to be structurally good and the seals are fine, but it was used as a saltwater tank and has that multi-colored growth which all saltwater tanks have everywhere. ( I think it is called Coralline Algae). If you could give your opinions on how much you would pay for it I would greatly appreciate it. Also how would you go about getting that multi-colored algae and calcium build up off? I have tried using vinegar on my 135 gal but I could never get it all of. Thank you guys very much.
How much would you pay for a used 220 gal?

Thanks guys, how would you go about building a stand? I want it to look pretty nice so cinder blocks are out of the question, unless you could put a decorative wrapping around it or something?
EDIT* Oh ya, I seem to remember perfecto isn't the best manufacture, what do you think?

I like OCEANIC, but you got a nice tank and you will be OK. Just make sure the sealing looks solid. Also, I like wood stands, because I seek that furniturelike look.
If it needs a lot of cleaning and has stains $220. It's an older tank with nothing and no stand. If it had a nice stand and some odds and ends $400-$500. As is no more the $220 $1 per gallon Is fair.
$1 per gallon. Chips and scratches deduct per incident. A large chip with "potential" to be a problem, I would take off $20 minimum. An obvious previous repair, same. Point is, a new tank will cost more, but what is your piece of mind worth?
