Is this a good buy (55 gallon)?

[Botia]

It's a fifty-five gallon Marineland starter kit. It comes with one of the penguin double sided filters, a heater (I think 200 watt), hood, lights, and other miscellaneous things. I am also buying a black stand with open shelves. The total will come to $282.31 (a 9% tax has been incorporated into the total). Is this a good buy? I have enough for it, but I am also going to college in the fall and will be living in the dorms. Buy or no?

Also, it will all be brand new. Nothing used as it is from the store.

It's not going in the dorm. It will be at my house while I am in college; my college being about an hour away from home.

Basically, I have a 30% discount on my entire purchase at PetSmart until June 10th. I want to use it wisely.

I did... but my parents didn't let me keep it and had me return it. Boo ((
