Well, lets take some math calculations...shall we? 

A new kessil 160... Aprox. 240$

Nuvo 20... aprox. 300$

Mathematically, we have already passed the 450$ mark. Plus you have the top off system. Now, maths aside... Is the filtration sufficient? I really don't know, because I have no experience. But the top off is a huge plus, and the kessil too... You get live rock, live sand, chaeto lighting. For me, I think that it is quite a good deal. But I would double check the filtration. I think an opinion from someone else would come in handy.

Good deal. Especially if the tank isn't plauged with problems. Like dinos or some kind of pest. Even if you have to start over with new rock and sand for some reason its still a good deal. That ato container is almost 200 bucks brand new.
