Well, since I don't know where you live I can't really answer to that, but I think thats a pretty good price. But, If I were you, I would check the newspapers and maybe some online sites in your area to try and find a good used tank. I got a 50 gal. for about 30. in Chicago, and if you can catch the newspaper ads I have seen them for as little as 10. Also, you might look for something bigger because a turtle that size should have more room, especially if he may grow more. If you are really concerned about price, check into a plastic storage container or a stock tank. Good luck.

:I looking to purchase a new tank for my 6 1/2 inch res and while researching I discovered that the trading post is more expensive then brand new ones. I mean the difference is in hundreds. I'm a little confused on why brand new tanks are less expensive then used ones in mint condition. A Euro 46 gallon tank is $130 brand new and in the trading post a Euro 50 gallon is $350. I think I should purchase a brand new tank rather then a used one in mint condition with the price difference. Maybe its where I live. What do you guys think I should do? Thanks :)
