Help me make an offer

jmsilhy · May 12, 2020

Hi guys, I hope this is not against forum rules, I'm fairly new here. I've been hunting for a tank, I want a rimless rectangular setup around 80-100 gal. Found this in CL: https://dallas.craigslist.org/dal/for/d/dallas-saltwater-aquarium/7122325679.html

Piecing the information together from the posts and the seller txts, I found out that the lights are Radion XR15W G3 Pro. Skimmer is Reef Octopus, and Vortechs for water movement. Seems to have a good amount of live rock, I wouldn't count so much on the livestock, only a few corals maybe, since right now the tank is only keeping the rock wet and the fish are in a nano cube. If the tank is in good condition, how much would a fair offer be (I think 1800 is high)?

Thanks in advance.

1800 is ehhhh depending on corals

1500 would be a great deal depending on corals

1200 would be a steal

What model of the pumps and how old? The lights are prob worth about $300ish since you’re buying the whole set up. Without knowing the costs of the tank when it’s new, the models of the pumps and let’s assume there’s no scratches or cracks, I would pay $1000 max

Vortechs are MP10s as far as I can see, and the whole thing is around 3+ yrs old...

Also depends if they the older version or QD but I would assume they’re not.

$1400 if he takes it down and has it ready to load
$1200 if he's making you empty and remove it

Sorry for reviving this old thread but can you guys help me again, this time with this one:

I’ve seen it in person and looks pretty good, a couple of scratches inside. Right now we’re at 1.2k if I move it, I still think it’s too much considering the light (g2), but I’d like to know your opinions.
