question about tank thinking of upgrading

[cichlids209]

i have a chance to get a 125 gallon with 2 lights and glass tops for 200 dollars . But i don't have a truck i could possibly find one to borrow. its 1 hour away from me but also i would be without a stand ... but this would be a work in progress possibly aquarium journal . so i guess my question is 200 for the above a good price tank looks good condition from pic .

Sounds good but if he's desperate to move it? you might offer him $150.00.

Were I live that would be a great deal

Check what other similar tanks are listed for in your area. That should give you a idea if that is a good deal were you live or not

thanks guys well i offered 160 for the tank and glass tops don't need the lights because i will get LED's still waiting to hear back from the guy

Pick up a UHaul van to rent. Home Depot has them, too. The small trucks are like $20 a day so the van would be about the same. You have to return it full of gas. That's a great price at $200. My 55 gallon, tank only, was $130 new.
