It does fit but not w/ the included magnet and brace. I've been thinking about it. I'm pretty sure it's an easy mod to built up some egg crate and set the skimmer on it at the preferred water level. I have the PM 15. Is this what you have too?
which waterbox do you have ?

yes i just ordered the peninsula mini... on the intank website it says that the nano fits the PM 15 and with my research i came to the same conclusion ... have you tired turning it to the side ?

Yes, it fits just w/o the magnet mount. I've read up more. I find some have used my egg crate idea while others have tried to mount the magnet to the baffles between chambers (not sure that's a good idea). Either way, good to go.

I used the PW2418 stand, check my build thread for photos. It fits fine and works well except it will NOT work as a peninsula because the back is open for plumbing to an assumed sump. Others have used kitchen base cabinets as well as Ikea like the besta series.

Do you have nutrient or ph problems? Why do you want one for a nano tank? Advanced reefing doesn't necessarily mean more gear.
