I wondered when you were going to chime in.

I highly doubt I'm the only one with two.

I was thinking about what light to put on my frag tank and when I weighed things out, it seemed like another solaris was the way to go.

I won't have light shock fragging from the display and going into the frag tank.
If I used MH's on the frag tank then I would be adding a lot of heat to the tank water as well as the small room that holds the frag tank. This room would then help heat the frag tank, the fuge, the back of the display as well one of the sumps. I would probably have to use the chiller then and I'm right back to an energy guzzler which I am trying to avoid this time arouind. Once I saw first hand that the solaris does not add any heat to the tank - it was a no brainer. It does have some heat that exits and will go into the room but if it's a problem then I'll vent it into the wall or something.
