What would this be worth?

[Mudfrog]

I haven't decided if I would run SW or convert it over to FW yet, but since the owner used it for SW I wanted to post it in the correct forum. What would a tank like this typically be worth.

It's 4x2x2 and I have no idea what type or how large the sump is.

"120 gallon saltwater set-up with 2 metal halides. Sump set-up with large pondmaster pump (never been used)."

Well I bought it anyway.. too good of a deal to pass up. Just had to convince the wife

Congratulations....you should do a SW tank with it....

You already have good light with the MH which is a large expense in SW so you should go with salt.

Congrats on the pickup. Keep taking pics and posting as you set it up.

how much did you get the set up for

Do SW. As stated above you already have the lighting which money wise would have been a big chunk of the set up cost.

I'm giving the guy $200 for everything. It does not have the sump or any plumbing, although I have a spare 29 I can convert into a sump and plumbing is plumbing.. trip to Lowes.

I think I'm going to set it up as FW because I really want to see if my Dovii will come out of their skittishness in a larger tank. I'm going to keep the lights but just swap out the bulbs for now. If I decide to remove the Dovii I might go SW with it. There is a salt water LFS literally across the street from my neighborhood and they had a clown trigger fish and some type of a grouper ( I love groupers).. The trigger was awesome too though, seemed very aggressive. I'm not saying I'd get those so don't flame me.. just saying they peaked my interest


Oh yea.. I also saw a green wolf eel? That thing was awesome as well.

I'll be able to go salt in the future.. so it's not totally out of the question.

 

[tamra&steven]

yeah i know, hope you do. good luck with your tank set up.

Ok.. this is what it came with.. I know nothing about the lighting although it does have a part number on one of the box's.. Google only brings up one page and thats to a store. Fluorescent Ballast | Ballasts | Lighting Supplies | Aquarium - ThatPetPlace.com

Anyway, take a look a the pics, I'm pleased with what it has so far.
