If someone was offering to set-up home aquariums for you, how much would you pay for such a service? Would you buy the tanks off the person or would you get the set up yourself? Just curious. I have played with the thought of doing this in the past but not sure what to charge. By the hour or tank size? Just looking for suggestions.

Thanks!
 
make the people buy the equipment, (or you can get it and charge them). Pay by visit, and include fish in your charges. It seems like they are getting more if you offer that service.

Example: The doctors office I maintain was $150 to start them out (that included fish) and I charge 100 each visit after that. Its a simple tank so I only see it once a month. 2 times at most. From what i've found, thats actually fairly cheap.
 
i enjoy setting up my tanks.. i take pride in my setup....
but around 100-250 depending on size and how far u gotta drive
