Solana owners

I've got the Solana 34g with the 150 watt MH pendant (disco ball). It's been running for about four months now and I've been very happy with it thus far. Most everything is stock + Koralia 2 for flow. Haven't had any heat issues yet but just picked up a RKL 1 to kick on some fans should temp get above 82 as the weather gets hotter.
I'm also interested to see if there are any other Solana owners around. It's a great AIO IMO.

 

What are your guys thoughts on these such as good and bads. I might be looking into getting another tank soon, and solana is on the list.

 

Yea, I have a JBJ ATO right now, so I would ditch there ATO system. But does it seem like you have alot of space, why did you chose it over the Biocube 29, or did you look at CADLIGHTS. Where did you buy it from I know ADAMS has one in their shop.

 

I went with Solana over models because I really like the rimless open top look and most reviews I read on the forums were very positive (except for the "ATO" they really shouldn't even call it that). I'm also a fan look of the pendant light and because the design works as a heat sink there are no fans for added noise.
I ordered mine from Marine depot. Shipping took  a few weeks since ships direct from the factory rather than from MD. Despite an insane amount of packing the glass top was cracked as was one of the shelves for the stand. Current was really good about it though and I had replacement parts in a couple days. Overall I'd say it would be less hassle to get one at your LFS if it is a comparable price ($850 shipped) to what you can get online.
