Default JBJ nanocube 28!

Hi all,

I have read and researched a lot, and was able to find the dimensions of a JBJ Nanocube 28 = 18x22x22 high. Not a single website explained that measurement any better.

My question is when standing in front of the tank and looking at it, is left-to-right = 18 or 22? Similarly is front-to-back = 18 or 22?

I have a sunpod 150W fixture that has legs that only extend to 20" and was hoping to purchase a nanocube 28 and use the sunpod with it, but if 22 is left-to-right, then I can't do that.

Thanks for your help.
fresh.

your sunpod is 20 inches but the legs can extend a few inches from both ends increase or decease in length. My 48inch sunpod does the same, it allows you to extend a couple of inches from both sides. I'm sure you will have a few more post from ppl with 20inch sunpods with nano tanks.

you are correct, but even with the leg increase, it is under 20.75 inches.

Thank you so much, and welcome back I guess

Given that you built a stand for it, I am pretty sure you are the best at confirming that 18" is left-to-right

Thx and good luck with your hunt! Unless these tanks are in basements I think open top is a smart move.
