JBJ 24 nano cube

[Tyler Fay]

I recently purchased a used 24 gallon nano cube that is from 2006. I've had a biocube before, but never a nano cube. This is the first time I've actually seen one in person. For those familiar with them, did they come with 2 36w lights with moonlights in the middle? If so, I guess mine was modified to accommodate another bulb, and aftermarket moon lights. He also has a hole drilled going into the first chamber, about halfway up the back wall. No idea what that was used for, but will plug it up. If this is a "custom" lighting setup, has anyone run it?

JBJ offered three different hood arrangements for that tank.....same hood also fit the JBJ 28 as well. The three hoods were compact fluorescent , HIQ and LED. Here are the first two:

If I remember correctly, these two hoods also came with four blue "moonlights" in the four corners.

Hope this helps.

Mine actually looks far different, what do you make of this?

Wait, the top part of that hood looks different....that "U" shape. I'm wondering if they redesigned their tanks. Take note of the shape of the hoods I posted....your hood has an "innie" U while my hoods have an "outie" U shape.

You did say JBJ?

Yep....they have been redesigned. I have the "old" design, and you have the new design.

Oh, well that's just the feeding flap which is missing in the picture (missing one side tab). It works but falls off in the up position so it's off. Still getting materials to set up this tank. It is indeed a JBJ 24, it's stamped on the back that it is from 2006. Not really "cool" now but just kinda upset I missed out on a clearance price 32 biocube, so this will have to do. Have no idea what lighting on these was supposed to look like
