If you were looking for a used tank, what you be willing to pay for the following package deal? I picked up a tank off craigslist and I want to see if I got a good deal. I'll tell you how much it set me back after some replies ;P

180 Gallon tank, 6' x 2' x 2', fair condition.
Matching Stand
Matching Canopy
3 Hinged glass lids
72" Coralife Compact Flourescent light
2x Eheim 2228 Professionel (with hoses, no media)
2x Eheim 2229 Professionel Wet/Dry (with hoses, no media)
2x 300w Visi-therm Heaters
2x Powerheads (I forget brand)


So, what would your offer be for the package deal?
 
I don't have the money, but I would say 500 easily. Some might say I'm crazy, but if you have the money and you got all of this you would only need media, and fish. But like I said, you gotta have the money to spend.
 
Yea 500 is what I would say too for a good deal.
 
THe number that came to my mind (and to others I see) was 500.
 
So how much did you pay?
 
Brand new 180 gallon tank in hawaii = $900-1000 for just the tank, lol. If it was anywhere near 500 for that, even 800 I would buy it, but only because of where I currently live.
 
a new 180g in my area ON SALE is 1000. But it comes with a stand, hood and lights. So even $1000 out the door would be good in my eyes if it had all the other stuff.

You are looking at spending another grand EASY after buying that size tank new for a filter, deco, sand or gravel, not including the price of fish as well.
 
anywhere bewteen 500-1k really depends on quality of stand, and over all condition of everything.
