Brand new to this forum and unfortunately need to sell my tank. I have over $7,500.00 into it and would like to hear what it may be worth. I would like $2,500.00 for the whole set up. The tank was setup for a year and a half or so and wife won't allow in our new home. The tank can be seen in Bulverde, Texas.

..... and would like to hear what it may be worth......

sorry, but the for sale forum rules do not allow "best offer" etc. types of sales. please post a price, thank you.

I was really trying to get an idea of worth. I would like $2,500.00.

You had this ad under craigslist for $1500 and then you changed it to $2000 and now you wanted $2500 . So is this a firm price now?

[Bulverde]

had no price trying to figure out what it is worth. The moderator stated that I needed to post a price and I have been told I am selling too cheap. Trying to sell it but want a fair price. If it's worth $2500, I would like to get that. If not I would like to hear thoughts on its value. One of the people who I spoke with suggested that this forum was a good place to find knowledgeable people. I am a total novice and purchased what I was told was the best equipment for low maintenance, etc. It was professionally set up, taken down and maintained. Again, not trying to pull a fast one. Just trying to establish a value and see if there is any interested people. It has been sitting in my garage and my wife wants the space freed up.

Maybe you should post pix of the tank. The pix were of the equip and stuff but not of the tank. It would probably help the sale.

Thank you for the suggestion. The tank is crated but I will take some pictures of it this week.

I have been answering PM's thinking this post was old but wanted to tell everyone that the aquarium is sold. In answer to other PM's, it sold for $1,750.00.
