What to offer?

[fishy?]

Well, I currently have a 29 gallon reef, and was thinking of upgrading when my neighbor told me they were tired of taking care of their tank and want to sell it to me for CHEAP!!! It's a 72 gallon bow front with stand and fresh water fish what should I offer?
Any help would be nice,
Thanks!

There are a couple of silver dollars, blue lobster, two other fish I can't think of right now.

why don't you answer lion's question instead of bumping the thread, unless you think his question is irrelevent and not worth your time.

 

[nereef]

sorry, you posted right before i did, my bad.
what all is included? tank and stand, i'm assuming. powerheads, filter(s)?

 

[fishy?]

:happyfish Just the tank and stand, some fish I mentioned and gravel, fake plants.

 

[nereef]

$100 bucks

 

[lion_crazz]

Yeah, $100, $150 at the most.

 

[fishy?]

Well, she says she paid $600 dollars for it new. Do you think it has depreciated that much, thanks for quick reply!

It depends on how much you want the tank, in all honesty. There are tanks in the newspaper, online, etc. that are practically next to nothing. If you really want to make sure you get it, offer a higher price then. That is up to you. What is the condition of the tank and stand?
Another thing you want to ask them is if they ever used copper or medications in the tank.

 

[fishy?]

okay, thanks!

I see 55 and 60 gal tanks in the free rag here coplete with everything one needs for saltwater use go for under $150 to 200 Personally I would not give one dime for a bow front tank.......and in regards to what she paid for it is nill, as they can be had for less or a lot more, as it depends on where you look.
