chamber is so small..what kind of pump would work?

[A Canfield]

I just bought a used a 12 gallon nano that has 4 chambers in the back.
It did not come with a pump so I'm trying to figure out which pump would actually fit in the tiny little space(chamber 4) that it is suppose to go.
Anybody have a nano designed like this.....?
What brand, size, etc.....pump have you installed?
Thanks

get the dimensions of the chamber, such as the footprint. then go onto marine depot or premiumaquatics.com or something and find yourself a pump that will fit =) their pumps have their footprints written out such that you can easily figure out which one will fit.

goodluck

I'll give that a try............thanks

do you know what brand the nano is?

The brand label has actually been removed, but I think it is a JBJ.
I tried looking it up to see what came with the setup but I think it is a few years old....so no luck. Seems like most of them now come with 3 chambers instead of 4. You can imagine how small each chamber is when it is only a 12 gallon tank.
Someone else suggested the minijet 606.

Yeah JBJ has 3 chambers, post some pictures and we can help ID. If anythign fails mod it Then you can stick something like a Maxi-Jet 1200 or bigger. The more flow the better:rollface:

I decided to take matters into my own hands.........My tank now has 3 chambers. I decide the easiest thing to do was to cut out the plastic divider between 3 and 4. I just put a maxijet 1200 in chamber #3 and it works perfectly.
No worries about flow now!
