I am thinking about buying a (used) 65g Oceanic Aquarium with a stand. I dont now what it is worth so I need some help on what a good price is.. Does anyone know what they sold for new?
I priced a 60g all-glass today for 169.99 (new) what is a better deal?
65g Oceanic Aquarium used price?asking price is $150.00 o.b.o
60g All-Glass Aquarium new price $169.99

cpl of questions come to mind.
1. is the used one reef ready with everything you need or not.
2. The new one is it reef ready or need to be drilled.
3. the new one what all will you need to buy extra to set it up.
These are just a few that comes to mind. Sure you can get the new one for a few bucks more but if used is fully set up it can save you more money down the road .

Does it include anything else (stand, etc)? And is it drilled for an overflow?

Neither tank is drilled. The Oceanic Aquarium comes with a stand and heater and some stuff for a fresh water tank(That I dont need) I can have either one drilled though. I still have a overflow and sump that I kept from my last tank if I wanted to use. Thanks

I would pay 20 dollars more for the brand new tank.

I would expect to pay about $50 for a used 65g tank with no accessories.

thanks to everyone who responded. Is that $50 for just the tank or the price for tank and stand?
