Three years ago I got back in the hobby. I was looking at a 125G at Petemart for close to $300. I looked at craigslist and found a girl selling a 220G gallon for $500. I went to her place to pick it up. It was a 2 year old tank with stand, lights, glass tops, a Rena XP3, gravel, rocks, and 2 midas included. Her boyfriend bought it for them but I guess they were breaking up and she must have kept it. She lowered the price to $450. It was a deal of a lifetime. I guess you just got to be patient.
