#With my 30 y/o All-Glass that are still watertight

Browsing through Facebook Marketplace, looking at aquariums, and some of these listings are bonkers.

My fellow fishnerd, you are not going to receive $3+/gallon for your used, mineral-encrusted tanks. Aquarium stores regularly have $1/gal sales, and anyone willing to pay more than that is looking for something way more expensive than your gently loved Aqueon. I'm not even willing to match that for something I need to spend an hour scrubbing with alcohol, water-fastness unknown.

Honestly people would be better scrapping the glass tank and just selling the stand, especially if it's one of the heavy, solid wood ones that you can't find sold anywhere now. I don't think any company is even making them, given that the stands carried at the same retail price now are all particle board. Not even plywood. Particle board.

Enshittification has finally reached the aquarium hobby.
