    Getting a nano for my wife's birthday.

    I am getting a nano for my wife for her birthday. I was thinking about the aquapod. either a 12 gal or a 24 gal. Any thoughts on this product? also It would be going on her desk at work. Would it be a problem if they turn the a/c off at night? It can get up to about 84 degrees when it's off.
