Here are a few of my 24 when I had the skimmer in it. I had to remove it because I do not have an ATO and I get about 1+ gallon of evap. a day in the winter. With that much evap it was too hard to keep the skimmer placed right and work properly.

I got one on mine, It was ok. I thought the collection cup was too small. Would of been better if it was bigger.

Water capacity is water capacity the skimmer does not know if its in a 10 gal tank, Aqua POd or Nano Cube.....as long as its within its specified capacity it should work. They call it a nano skimmer as its small in size and the company that came out with the Aqua POd also designed a skimmer that was smallenough to work in the typical nano tank environment.

My house is notoriously dry in the winter months, that is why the evap rate is so high. I don't think that amount is typical. It drops off drastically in the summer when the humidity goes up. Alot of people have had success with this skimmer in their 24NC.

I thought it was a little small for a 24 gallon, I run a 25 gallon set up but though it would be too small....
Also I noticed my evap increased quite a bit when my house was colder, and when it was colder out. Increasing my house temp helped some as there was less heat transfer. Also lately we've had 25 straight days of rain, the air isn't near as dry.

I also ordered from those "depot" guys, same result. This skimmer is one hard-to-find commodity. If you find it let me know
