People are not spending right now...I've seen lots of local tanks for sale that don't move unless they are priced lowish...I'm in no way trying to insult you, but I wouldn't expect to get more than 50 cents on the dollar or around $500-$600 for the whole setup...I've seen lots of people sell off the livestock and then the the equipment lately as whole setups seem to be slow to go...ICT is not that far from KC (I just drove 200 miles to Nevada, MO to get a 24G tank for my kid)...you might want to advertise on our local board (salt-city.org) and see if you get any tickles...that's a good looking setup IMO.

Good Luck.

Of course you can always start higher with OBO and see what happens...not that you asked but I'll give you some advice based on something I see over and over...establish your starting price and say this is what I want $$$ OBO...I see lots of "for sale" post that say make offer and people just seem to shy away and not make offers...if it was me, I would start at $800 or $900 OBO and see what you get...you can always lower your price if you don't get any offers at that price.

I'm kind of feeling for prices right now and I may even keep it.

I don't want my local club to make fun 'at' me for listing a really high price. I would consider buying my setup from someone else for around 400-500 but I would love to sell it for more.

I really appreciate the advice. thank you!
