Cheap?

[lemon drop]

I have a line on 125 gallon tank with the 4'x2'x2' dimensions, all the equipment, live rock and sand, corals, anemones and some fish. He is asking $900.
I am interested in opinions on the price.
Also on the pros and cons of a tank with those dimensions. I want to avoid having a tank that is too high, too wide, etc....
Please share your opinions.
Thanks!

the height I think is too high to reach when you have to work around the tank. What type of light? How many lb of rocks? how many corals? does it have an overflow?

The add reads:
over 150lbs of live rock, 125lbs of live sand, 1 15inch rose and tons of corals and some fish. It is a glass show tank 4ft wide, 2 mh lamps and a aqua medic needle wheel protien skimmer, sump, dual internal waterfalls, digital temp control, furniture grade oak stand and hood and all.
How talll of a tank do you recommend? Or what is the tallest you would recommend?

How tall are you? if you are about 6', 24" is no problem. Perfect depth. Thats sounds almost too good to be true. Id get over there with $900 and look at it REAL quick.

Such a personal question, lol! I am 5'9" so a few inches shy of 6'.
A previous post asked about how many corals. I am not positive as I haven't seen it yet, but I the gentleman implied that he had 6-10 corals, several anemones a nudibranch, a few fish....
Thanks for your opinions!

Get rid of the nudi as soon as you get it.

why? how does one go about getting rid of it? I suppose I could sell it on here, or do you recommend taking it to my lfs?

 

[emmitt]

They will starve in the tank most likely and when they die they can be pretty toxic and kill alot of stuff in the tank. Just take it out and take it to the lfs.
