Current USA AquaPod w/ 150 Watt HQI 24 Gallon Tank

I'm looking to downsize and was considering this tank. Does anyone have one of these, or no if its a good all in one unit to have. There is the other unit, red sea max I was looking at as well, any info on this unit would be great also, thanks.

For all in ones, imo, the current solana would be worth a look. I downsized from a 90g to a solana. It was the only all in one tank that I really liked overall. I looked at the CAD tanks, But they didn't offer the width of the solana. FWIW, marine depot is offering a solana package for the same price as the red sea max package.

Thanks, I was looking to keep the cost down, and still hae what I want in a tank. The small size still concerns me a little though.

Consider CADLights. They have a 39gl Signature as well as Pro series.

Signature is AIO
Pro is nano tank w/ sump

Both include filtration, lighting, etc...

Yeah CAD Lights, this AquaPod you've chosen already, or the Solana from Current-USA is nice as well!

Here is the Solana...its really nice with that same light fixture you mentioned with the AquaPod...I dig it. But I wanted bigger, so I kept shopping, but this one was close on my top 3 list!

Friend has one of these, and went from the 70w to the 150w and colors are great and as long as you got a tunze skimmer, the tank has been perfect for growth in sps.
