Would be best to say how many gallons the tank is, as we all don' no how many gallon a 3ft tank is.

 

[FeeshLurver]

its about 25 gallons i think

 

[WILDER]

No filter, about £100 pound or abit more.

 

[FeeshLurver]

o yer there is a filter its fluval plus 2

EDIT: plus all the gravek and plants and da such

 

[Ethos]

Do you live in the U.K. or the U.S.?
That matters alittle bit...

 

[WILDER]

Sounds like uk with the fluval filter.

 

[Erised]

No filter, about £100 pound or abit more.

Seriously?! Here in Holland I wouldn't pay more than €65 for that ... which is *checks* ... £43.50 ish ... Perhaps a bit more with fish then, but no more than £50

Ofcourse, this is probably the difference because of the countries.

Sounds just like the setup I got for my dad last year (30 gallon), and I paid $100 for it. The lady threw in everything related to the tank as well ... gravel cleaner, food, test kits, everything.

 

[FeeshLurver]

[OohFeeshy]

About £60, £70 ish

[One_Trick_Pony]

dam i wnat to lvie in holland, hockey sticks are much cheaper there as well

 

[pica_nuttalli]

brand new from a store?
i'd pay $175-$225.

used but less than 2 y.o. and no appearance issues/defects/obvious transportation issues?
i'd pay $100-150.

older set-up or potential problems/irritations?
i'd pay no more than $100 and even that might be pushing it

i think the thing that would turn me off the most is having to deal with the fish. the "sucking loach" would have to go and getting the non-livebearers in appropriately sized schools would pretty much stock the tank! i think you would have better luck if you tried rehoming the fish first and then got rid of the tank.

another thing: i personally would be inclined to spend more if the tank had a lot of nice looking plants in it. if it isn't well-planted already, go to a large chain LFS or Walmart and purchase a pack or two of Apongeton bulbs. Apongeton bulbs are maybe $3 for a pack of 5. In two weeks, every one of them should have sprouted lovely green leaves--really enhancing the look of a tank. If any of them get too tall, hold the bulb against the substrate and pull out any unwanted leaves by the stalk.
