Tunze Nanostream

I'm thinking about getting a Tunze Nanostream 6025 (6045,6055 are same size) but I'm not sure if it will fit between my tank and my wall (I have a corner 92gallon with walls on both sides). I have a little over 3/4" clearance there for the magnet. I can't seem to find any dimensions on the thickness of that magnet. Does anyone happen to have one who could tell me ? Also is the power cord located on the magnet side or the inside? Thanks a bunch.

They are 5/8" including the clear rubber feet. Looks like you have an 1/8" to spare.

Great news, thanks a lot. Have either of you tried the mod where you do some cutting on the inside that supposedly adds more flow to it ? If so what do you think of it. Thanks again.

I performed the shroud mod on my 6025 pumps and saw a noticable difference in flow. I can't gauge how much it increased, but things on the opposite end of the tank were blown around quite a bit more.

I modded 3 of mine and it makes a major increase in performance. Very easy to do, just cut out the tube inside the shroud.
