I was wondering if the ap 24 hood could be modded to hold either a 150w MH or 2 70wMHs.

I'm figuring that heating would be major issue.

yes, JBJ i believe is the maker of a 70w and 150w clamp-on. www.marinedepot.com, www.premiumaquatics.com, and a couple other sites have them. the two listed are cheaper than the others ive searched. keep about 6-8" above water for heat reasons. the are about $150.00 if im correct, but dont quote me on that one! lol! good luck and have a great weekend,

Sorry, I should have clarified that it needs to be installed into the existing OEM hood.

since im not familiar with this particular nano "AP" its hard to give the better advice. does it have the filter built in the hood?

AP= Aquapod. I have two vantec stealth fans I'll be putting in tomorrow.

Are they selling them now or are they still just hyping them for next year?
