Does anyone know anything about these tanks, particularly the 24 gallon? The product description isn't very helpful as it doesn't really list the supplies that come with the tank.
If anyone knows what equipment comes with/is needed for the tank (protein skimmers, filters, lights, heaters, etc) please tell me.
Thank you!

I have a 24 gallon aquapod and it comes with sponge filters bio balls and ceramic tubes in the back chamber for bio filtration/ mechanical filtration. I have a reef tank setup so i discarded the sponges and balls because they hold onto stuff and create nitrate like mad. It comes with lights 64 watts of power compact a 32 watt 10k 6.5k bulb and a 32 watt 460nm 420 nm bulb. There isnt really room for a skimmer in the tank and with the stock hood you cant hang anything on the back. I have a heater in mine that keeps it at 79 degrees but the lights often get the temp up to 80 and sometimes 82 during the day. I say its a pretty decent tank if your looking for and all in one, I wouldn't recommend the biocube though because some of the filtration compartments in the back chamber are unaccessible.

Did you somehow fit a skimmer into yours?
How do you like the lighting?

the lightuing is great for softies and some lps like candykane corals but cant really put out enough for sps. I dont have a skimmer on mine i cant find one that will fit in the back and still work with the stock hood so for now im just keeping up on water changes. i will be getting a 70 gallon reef tankain the summer so them my aquapod will be a frag tank.
