    Unfortunately the second hand market for tanks is TERRIBLE! I would think that he could realistically only get R750 for that tank... also depending on what make the filters and heaters are etc.

    The problem with tanks like that is that altho is appears to be big.. there is very little sruface at the top in relation to the volume of water, and therefore a lot less oxygen in the water thatn if you were to compare that volume of water to a normal fish tank. This limits you to the number of fish you can put in. Because of the height of the tank, you are also very limited to the plants you can put in because the light has to penetrate to deep.
