um, its worth what people are willing to pay for it, myself its not worth much as I would have to get rid of everything in the tank.
with out knowing the brands of stuff it is hard to say but if it is true he has spent 8K on the setup then 3K is not bad. but if he only spent 3K on equipment and the rest on livestock that you don't want then it isn't worth much to you. figure a used tank is worth about $1-2.00/gal on average, then you have to figure out what the equipment is and what it is worth, when I sold my used equipment if it was actualy used I would go about 50% of what I paid for it.

In my opinion you could build this tank from scratch with 3 grand
So mabie its worth 2.5 tops ? But we really don't know some of the stuff like skimmers and adshinal equipment that might bump the price up

Hey Kien... thanks!
Is this the part where I say now I feel extremely stupid for saying I live in Calgary when I live in Toronto??????????????????? I figured since I was posting a classified ad and thought maybe If I found a good deal and I was putting it on the busiest canadian form.. I thought someone may have bought it hahaha... so stupid. Needless to say I am in Toronto ... do you or anyone else want to give me a TORONTO contact for a custom setup? Sounds like this is not a good deal at all anymore  Why would you get rid of all the sand????? whats the point in that. the tank did look like it had a lot of rocks in it!

Well, you wouldn't be the only one around here who lies about their location :-)
1. Concept Aquariums does ship tanks across Canada. You'll find lots of people out east with Concept tanks. 2. Check the Ontario sub forum here to see where people get there tanks from. 3. A thick (deep) sand bed in the display tank is kinda a thing of the past. If you like the look if lots of deep sand then fine, but it's rare to see that in new setups these days. A lot of people opt not to even have any sand at all in their tanks (for ease of maintenance or aesthetics). I personally like sand and have a 1" thick dusting of sand covering the bottom of my tank. It amounts to maybe 2 pounds of sand ?

Tank and stand, = 200ish
rock = maybe 300 sand = toss it, buy new The rest has no brands, condition, etc. I've seen people's "amazing corols", generally garbage unless it's exactly what you were going to buy anyway. I would guess if he can't spell coral, he can't take great care of them  Maybe worth a few hundred. Maybe.If you want all the fish, worth maybe another 400 (assuming good size, condition, etc) So depending on what the gear is, it maybe be worth upwards of 2200, maybe more if it's exactly what you're looking for. If you're interested, and it's clean and in nice shape, offer 1800 and work from there.
