Bought the wife a nano for her office & got an aquapod for me. IMO, the aquapod is better. More room to get your hands in the back. Just a nicer unit all the way around.

the only problem with those kinda tanks is you get a lot of moisture in the light/hood and it messes up after a while. just set up your own. you can do it just as easy, but its more expensive. but then again, you wont have to take your lights to be repaired twice a year either.

I just bought a AP 24 HQI.. Don't have it yet.. Should be here this Friday, also bought a real nice cherry wood stand for it.

Overall the AP seemed just a little bit better built IMO.

I believe the AquaPod is better in construction and with the advantage of an all glass tank. Now Nano is making glass aquariums due to the bad quality acrylic that gave so many problems.Plus their hood has better cooling system. However I find finer the AquaPod and would go with the proven quality of this and the larger size.

Hey Big Teddy...

I am with Glam, he gave me the same advice and I am IN LOVE with my AquaPod. It is so much fun and the price was the best too.
