Roger please......

Please tell me one of the Nano models will fit in the #2 or #3 compartment of my AquaPod 12g. The compartment dimensions are: 8" deep, 3"front to back, and 4" side to side. I want the lid to be able to close without having to do any mods.

I just happen to be sitting on the couch with a couple new nanos sitting next to me. I just measured one and the diameter of the round part is about 2 1/2 inches across and 3 3/8 wide including the output nozzle.

I dont know about fitting in the compartments, but it would easily fit in the tank itself. The nanos arent much bigger than MJ900s. It might be way too much flow for a 12g though.

poppin_fresh: Thank you for the info. Believei it or not...I already replaced my stock pump (in the #4 chamber in a 12g nano) with a MJ900 and a HydorFlo attatchment instead of the ugly y connector and duckbills. That was sill not enough flow, so I also have a mini jet (160 gph) with a flow deflector on the opposite side of the tank....and now the flow is just right. So if the flow from the Nano skimmer is in the 160gph range it should be perfect! Where did you get yours, and how do you like them so far. Thanks again....Perry

Whoa... wait a minute. I thought you were referring to the Nano streams, not the skimmer. I couldn't figure out what you were trying to accomplish...now I see. I do not have the nano skimmer.

For whats worth, I bought a Biocube 14 yesterday for my living room. I too am wondering about a skimmer for it, so I'll tag along from here!

I responded to your PM. Anyway, I cannot say for sure it will be an extremely snug fit if it works. You might see if the nano forum has any feedback.
