Hey,
I just wanted to get some opinions on whether anyone thought this was a good deal because it seemed like a great deal to me. Im considering buying a 75 gallon bow front tank for $150. It comes with the tank, stand,Protein skimmer, filter, 80# live rock, Lights (just NO lights, would have to upgrade), 5 gallon sump, and some misc items.
So what do you guys think?

That's an OK deal I would say. The big question is what kind of skimmer it is? Is it drilled? And also a 5 gallon sump is to small and would be a good idea to get a larger one. Just a few things to consider.

Currently waiting to hear back about the skimmer, yes it is drilled, and I agree about the sump, I have a 30 gallon tank on hand already. All good things to think about, thanks for the response.

Its on hold until tomorrow... but Ill take that answer as a "yes its worth it"

Yes. I just had a 75 drilled and bought a bulkhead and it was 54.00 just for that. The live rock alone may be worth the 150.00 just depends on what it looks like.
