Tank's Worth

I've decided to sell my tank but I don't know how much the stuff is
worth. Can anyone give me a clue? I know how much I paid for it, but
it's not nearly worth that . . . I'm planning on getting a few smaller
tanks in exchange for the big one.

I have a 75 gallon tank with an oak canopy and stand, I have a
hamilton lighting system, ballast, 2 110 VHO and 2 halides. I also
have two brand new VHOS. I would say the tank and the lighting system
are about 3 years old. The halides need replacing, they work but
they've not been replaced in about a year.

Any ideas? I'm keeping the live rock, animals, filtration, etc. for
the small tanks.

Amanda,

I hope you keep the 75-gall tank, unless you desperately the space. It
is much more stable than small tanks, and as you realise, you will
only receive peanuts for the equipment. Invest in new bulbs M.O. as
the cheapest alternative.

Best wishes, Fishnut.
