Anyone have the Aquapod 24g, with MH?

Just seen on drsfosterandsmith.com site that they have this tank with MH, and was wondering if anyone had one. Looking for a nano tank with this kind of lighting without haveing to do alot of modding myself, and not paying a fortune for it either. If anyone hasn't heard of this here is a description, tell me what you think.:

Features a powerful 290-gph pump, dual-stage mechanical and biological filtration, surface-skimming overflow intake system, adjustable weir, and easy-view curved glass corners. Independently controlled lighting with internal electronic ballasts and cooling fans. Available in square pin compact fluorescent or double-ended HQI metal halide lighting systems. 20" x 17" x 20" h.

70W HQI Metal Halide System - Includes: Surface skimming filtration system, 1 -14,000°K HQI Metal Halide light, 6 blue and 6 white LED lights, cooling fan, mechanical sponge filter, 290 gph submersible pump with flat nozzle, and complete instructions.

In my opinion it would be cheaper to buy a plain nano cube and have a member mod it for you for a slight fee if not just to help ya out??

I would like to see some pics of the 70w MH model. Is the hood taller for heat issues? If you really like the shimmer that MH produce than go for it, but for $150 more your getting 6w difference.

It's an open-top tank.
