I would think that the Nanocustoms ICA Chiller will work out in a 24 gallon version of the aquapod. Would that be correct? I'm thinking to try to install one in a 64w hooded version.

Any thoughts Chris?

Sorry for the delay.

I havent personally tried mounting one (I will this week tho). But it should fit.

The aquapod fans are 60x60 mm, and so is the ICA. The only difference is the clearance for the splashguard.

Ill keep you posted.

how do you guys like this chiller? also did you have to cut anything to add the chiller, or just remove the fan and put it in its place?i am getting it with the metal halide top.

You have to cut a hole through the splashguard directly above where the chiller will go. Also, you still use the stock fan that comes with the tank. The ICA mounts on top of the fan as seen in the pictures above.

It does not fit the aluminum block hits the plastic separator between the tank and filter..what did you guys do?

The ICA should be mounted w/ the water block at the bottom (see nickleye's photo). It is off center. If you mounted it with the block on the up side it would hit the divider. That or the water block is mounted a bit too high on the heatsink.
