I bought some nautulus mini tanks. One of them won't work on any of my batteries. I've only used it a couple of days. So us it always the coil if a tank doesn't work? Or are some tanks just duds?

No it is not always the coil.
It is sometime a centerpin contact issue.

I got another Itaste 20 watt in the mail just now, and a nautulus tank I bought separate, First, the tank I'm having prob with won't work on this either. Second, I thot I was buying another nautulus mini but I got this gigantic tank with this huge "pipe" for a mouth piece. I'm about to have a nervous breakdown getting equipment that works for me, not to mention going broke :(. I'll go get a pic of the tank I got.

This is what they sent me

I ordered a mini. This says Atlantis on the Box. Is that the mouth piece?

So you got an Atlantis.

Here's a screen shot of my order:
Aspire Nautilus Mini (BVC) Clearomizer Tank
Aspire-Nautilus-Mini $22.95
Ordered: 1
Shipped: 1
$22.95
Innokin iTaste MVP 20W Watt
Color Stainless Steel Innokin-iTaste-MVP-20W

I don't think I can even use this w the 20 watt Itaste? Even if I could I hate that big pipe that's supposed to be a mouthpiece. Heck I'd expect to strike oil sucking on that. I've been waiting to hear back from them and of course there's no phone number available.

You can just swap the mouthpiece from one of the other tanks.

Yes you can use the atlantis with the mvp20

Change out the coil and see how it works. Typically it's just a coil issue. Also check what Ohm the coil is and what are you attaching it to? If it is a low Ohm coil some devices won't work with it.

Yes, thanks. I went to a local b&m bought a new coil and it's working now. I just didn't expect a new nautulus tank to go out in two days.

Nice thing about a B&M, for me, is that if I have any problem with anything, I go back to them and talk through it. We can help all day, but it can be better to actually talk to someone with the hardware in hand.

I have found several people in my area and got their phone numbers. I met one at a fast-food place and we talked a good bit. Took my stuff and he brought his stuff.

Helps

With a Nautilus you should also double check that the coil is still screwed in all the way. On most 510 connections it is the actual coil base contacting the battery pin. On a Nautilus the base is solid, with a spring connector inside that makes the contact with the coil base. The coils seem to be able to loosen up fairly easily. Also, that design means that you can end up with liquid in/on the connection that you may need to swab out..
