Ok, I got my Finnex-M tank out of storage and it had a few unsightly scratches so I bought an acrylic scratch remover and now my Finnex-M tank can now proudly be a coin jar or maybe a sump.

I enjoyed the nano tank experience more than the big tank so I am thinking about getting a new nano tank. I am looking currently at the Current Aquapod and the JBJ. I can only see pics and stuff online so I am not sure which one is better.

Which one is better? What do people out their think about theirs?

I just know now that glass is the only way for me to go. :(

I have one of these, and I'm really happy with it. Lighting is decent (not enough for SPS..) and does NOT need fans.

That link was blocked at work due to adult content (that is what filter says). Talked to some folks and they all said go with Aquapod. I ordered it this morning, will get here in 7 business days. Pic coming later :)

Adult content? That's funny. It's a glass, 12g nano, with 3x8w T-5s. $89.

BTW, what do you do for the Navy? My cousin and her husband are stationed there. She just got promoted and is now the first female fighter squadron commander (F-18s) in the Navy.

I really like my 24g Aquapod. I got the one with the 70w HQI light upgrade. Works great! :)

It was those 3x8w T-5s that did it. :skeezy

What size Finnex is it and would you ever consider selling?

I have a 24 AP that I love. I did some mods on it though. the 150w sunpod grows all my sps with no problem. get a chiller unless it sits right under a ac vent.

I also have the Aquapod with the 70HQI. I am successfully growing SPS now. I run a sapphire aquatics skimmer and just recently put in a 600GPH Rio Hyperflow 10 Pump that fits perfectly in the back. Highly recomend this pump. Has anyone tried flex piping on the manufacturers return instead of the flimsy plastic deflector?
