Is this a good deal?

Hello, I was wondering if this is a good deal? I was thinking about checking it out tommorow.

That is quite a bit cheaper than getting it new (that's about half as much as a new one around here) I would say to the guy:

"800 and it's a deal!"

...And you could save 50 bucks. If he says "NO 850!" Then you could say "820!" (or something) and so on. Who knows... Since it has no hinges you could use that to get it cheaper. I wouldn't try less than 800 though.

Cool, this is my first tank purchase so I really appreciate the advice. Thanks again!

im gonna say no, maybe half that price. has some equipment but no lights which can be expensive. of course the final judgement is left up to you.

here is one i was thinking about buying, includes all filters and heaters

naw, pass this one up. it really depends on what u want. Also what u are willing to spend. for 850 u can get atleast a 300g. just be patience, espically on craigslist

Depends on what you want to keep. Seems like a fair deal for saltwater... If you want fw then there are better deals around here.

my husbands 125 with tank and stand alone was like $1000. that has everything u basically need just add fish really. Seems like a good deal.

Yea, it would be sw with fowlr. It has a lot of equipment which is good. So Im going to probally go pick it up tommorow using some of SEDS negotiating techniques. Thanks for the opinions guys!

Yeah try offering like $750 for starters and see what you can negotiate.

I see this ad posted in a used paper in toronto, i was wondering if it is a good deal.
not really in the market for another tank but the fish seem like its a good deal even without the tank.
what do you guys think?


I'm looking to sell my 100 gallon tank. It includes two external filters, and one hang on back filter. Also a sponge filter with an air pump. I'm also including a "12 Silver Arowana, a "10 Pearl Arowana, a "14 Alligator Gar, a "8 inch Wolffish, and two Parrot Fish. I need this gone ASAP. I'm looking for a quick sell so I'm willing to let all this go for 300.00 or best offer. Pick-up only, A pick-up truck is needed to take all the stuff as I don't drive. Sorry for the low-quality pics as the fish wouldn't stop moving and I don't have a digital camara, I was using my cell phone camera. Feel free to email me about any questions you may have.
