Googs Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Doesn't have to be nice, the lights don't need to work. I am just looking for one to basically dismantle and mod. A good polycarbonate splash lens would be good to have though, but not necessary. Thanks, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reefnjunkie Posted September 20, 2010 Share Posted September 20, 2010 Have you considered going open top and having the fixture rest on the edges? I ran a 24 gallon aquapod that way and had a piece of Lexan or acrylic that sat in the lips within the rim??? Just a thought. The acrylic wont be good if you want to run MH bulbs-tried it and it was to much heat-at least a 150watt MH was on my 24 gallon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googs Posted September 21, 2010 Author Share Posted September 21, 2010 I would love too but with the amount of cathair floating around this house I don't think it would be a good idea. Also, I really like the AIO closed top look. Getting another hood is more for the fun of modding. I'm also looking for a hood for a 15.5 pacific coast nano but those are even harder to find. Next tank will be an open top though, MH for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kendaroo Posted September 21, 2010 Share Posted September 21, 2010 I was looking for one when I had a 24g aquapod... never found one, but one did show up on Nano-Reef.com just after I took that tank down! What kind of mod are you gonna do? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Googs Posted September 21, 2010 Author Share Posted September 21, 2010 Lights mainly. Maybe T5 retro or fit in a 96w quad I have. Nothing too exciting, just like tinkering around with electronics. Haven't dabbled with lighting yet so I figured I might as well. Any current or prior aquapod owners done any cool mods I might want to try?

Googs Posted September 29, 2010 Author Share Posted September 29, 2010 Wishful bump. Any hinges out there for the aquapod hood? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
