Was not sure where to put this so if I made a mistake please forgive me. I have upgraded again to a 210gl and wish to sell my other tank, but I am not sure what to ask for it. Perhaps someone can give me some idea. All equipment is about two years old. Do you think 450.00 would be too much?

75gl AGA with center built in overflow.
Cherry stand with drawers
All Clear 90 rated sump
Mag 9 return pump
AquaC Remora Pro HOB skimmer with drain fittings, surface pre filter, and a mag3 pump
Current outer orbit 2 x 150 MH and 2 x 130 PC
2 x Hydro 850 PH with Smart wave controller

75lbs live rock
50lbs substrate

1 x 6 line wrasse
1 x lawnmower blenny
1 x 4” Red Sea Purple Tang
1 x 4” Yellow Hawaiian Tang
1 x 3” Royal Gramm Basset
1 x 2” wild caught Orchard Dottyback

20 head purple tip frog spawn
4” patch yellow polyps
6” tan colored leather coral, looks like a big mushroom with tiny fingers
4 x 2” orange ricordia
3 x 3” different colored Acans

I will be selling locally in Indiana if that makes a difference.

I personally wouldn't pay more than 500 for it. About half of retail or so.

That about right for a stocked 75 with the equipment listed, throwing in the livestock is just a bonus for the buyer.

Depreciation bites!!

That does seem about right for selling price, asking price is a different story.:lol:

I will be happy with 450.00 just wanted to make sure I was not cheating anyone.

You're shorting yourself. Examples:

Mag 9 = $45

75lbs of live rock (if still wet and live) $150- $200

Aqua C with pump = $75

Just in those 3 items you're at about $275

Yes the tank is up and running, One of my issues is I am only home every other weekend. The other is I do not want the hassel of shipping. So a quick take it all sale would be nice. But I thank you for the advise...
