i assume you mean aquapod 24g nano tank??
t5s start at 24" & you can find several fixtures that have adjustable legs that will fit & look well w/ a minimal amount of overhang.
the sundial is a nice one cause it has (2) timers built-in

nova extreme is another good one too

another option would to either DIY it yourself or buy an already modded hood for it w/ more power compacts. stock, it comes w/ (2) 36w power compacts. they make kits to add either (1) or (2) more 36w power compacts....depending on what you want to keep. here are 2 great companies for those mods:

http://www.nanotuners.com/advanced_...=aquapod+24&osCsid=r7743rb67vbj8u8inq80tmj1m6
they both have kits to do it yourself, or they sell a new hood already modded. great thing about the 2nd option is you keep the original hood for a backup or resale w/ the tank....& there is no downtime while modding the stock hood
