30 gallon fish tank for 30 dollars? Good deal?

Question

It says it doesn't have a lid but I don't have a lid in my 20 gallon anyway. And I don't really want a lid. I'd say its a good deal. A dollar per gallon! I don't live in NH, I'm just visiting my sister and then I'm flying back home on the 4th. How would I get it back???

Answer 1

unless it turns out to be a total peice of S***e when you get it.. it does sound good

Answer 2

It would be better to save your money to buy locally as it will cost more to fly it on a plane or even to shop it by truck to your house. Plus during shipment it might get broken and then it is not a bargain any more.

Answer 3

You can typically get a 30 gallon tank for $30 at local pet stores. They often have $1 a gallon deals. The rub is what do accessories cost you.

If you're looking at a used tank on CL, you can probably get one with gear cheap for local pickup, or even free if people want it out of the house.

Answer 4

It is a good deal, but it has no pic so I would be careful buying it you do not know what condition it is in, if you wanted to get it back I think you might has to ship it and that would cost extra cuz of the weight

good luck
