The tank and stand seem reasonable, but the price for the lights seems very steep. Also a 5% discount seems low for a $1000 package deal:

Ebay, but still a good one. Worst part is that someone actually bid on it...

http://cgi.ebay.com/20-gallon-repti...210?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item3cb6506692

20 gallon reptile aquarium with filter

Current bid:US $80.00

20 gallon water turtle aquarium. The aquarium comes with original filter as well as extra cartridges. Great condition. I had 2 water turtles in the tank and because they are getting to big, I had to upgrade. I bought the tank 6 months ago at petco for $180.00. Great deal if you need a great tank.



Question & Answer Answered On

Q: hi,does this tank come with a hood/light?And what are the tank dimensions?I couldn't pay $80 but maybe for less.......... Mar-23-11
A: It comes with the hood but no lights. The dimensions are 30' by 12 1/2'. I don't know if I want to sell it for less, $80 for a tank, filter, filter cartridges, and hood is a GREAT deal. The hood alone is at least $20.

55 Gallon Fish Tank with all parts - $400 (Leesburg, VA)

Date: 2011-03-18, 3:13PM EDT
Reply to: sale-8uz2r-2272776888@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]

We are getting rid of our 55 gallon fish tank for space issues. It has the glass tank, the filter system, two heaters, aquarium rocks, and decorations, 5 fish, and the beautiful wrought iron stand that it all sits on top of. We can work out pick up or delivery if you are interested. This tank with all the parts and fish would normally go for well over $1000 in a retail market, this is a steal.

HUDGE Fish tank & Tropical Fish (harford county)

Date: 2011-04-01, 8:07AM EDT
Reply to: comm-uvatv-2298739225@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]

My husband and i seperated and i can not take care of this tank and fish like they need its to much on me, iv been told its a 180 gallon maybe even 200 gallon tank, it is on a stand, there is over at least 15 different tropical fish, and alge eaters, albino cray fish and more. I have so much for this tank and not sure what everything is. I was told by a friend who is into fish that the filter its self was close to $400.00, also i have 3-4 big fish decorations as well. The tank is full and needs to be drained before transport. You will need alot of help, i can have some help there to assist but please bring help. I can send a pic from my cell phone but you really need to see it in person to respect everything. The tank needs to be cleaned soon and i can not do it by my self. I was told i could easily get 800.00 for everything, the fish alone where very expensive. But i am asking a rehoming fee of 500.00 for everything and once you see it you will understand and at least i know who has this will take care of it. This is a big set with alot of stuff. text me or email me for more information 443-760-6312

Ok.. had to include one more, just because the seller has a sense of humor....


125 Gallon Aquarium w/ stand! And more! (Herndon, VA)

Date: 2011-05-24, 7:57AM EDT
Reply to: sale-kbujn-2399392160@craigslist.org [Errors when replying to ads?]
This was used as a freshwater tank by the previous owner. It's just too big for my current needs. Tank holds water and looks incredible! Includes black stand, hardcore filter, glass cover (one side chipped), and lights.

I'm looking to get $450- but I'll listen to all reasonable offers for the 125 w/ stand.

I'm also selling a 45 gallon tank. I'd like $75 for it.

You can have both for any reasonable offer. Please specify in your email which one you're interested in.

I'll sell both for $500.

Also, unlike SOME aquariums, these will not give your fish AIDS.

As you can see in the pic, I am a Carolina Panthers fan. Please. Have pity on me. My team went only 2-14. If you would like to give me much MORE than I'm asking, due to pity, I would welcome it.
