I was doing similar research all over regarding the same thing.
I basically rule out the Aquapod pretty quickly for a few reasons...number one being the display area is slightly narrower than the other 2 styles.
I have owned 3 Nanocubes in the past so my research on the Biocube was all I had to do.
I think its a matter of personal preference in style between the two. I think the Nanocube has a better looking profile overall but the Biocube seemed to have slightly larger rear chambers...important because I want to make a refugium back there.
I think if you ask on most of the nano boards and hardcore nanoreefers they will tell you to go with OTHER types of tanks...the all-in-ones dont seem to be the popular choice only because of the perceived lack of customizability.
You will hear Finnex and CAD thrown around as well.
Personally I think I decided on the 29g Biocube for a few reasons. I like the overall look of the tank plus I like the ability to upgrade lighting (with help from nanocustoms.com)
For me the all-in-one is the way to go. Having a reef tank is a hobby for me but its not a "lifestyle".
