I modded out the Current 2x65w 30" pc fixture (same case as the sunpod) to hold two 150's over my little bros 20 long and it warms up the water 3 degrees. 250s get hot as h3ll. My big brother has to run a chiller on his 120 because of his 2 250s. That leads me to believe it would be hard to keep a 10-25 gallon tank cool under one. Who knows though... I hope someone gets one so we can see what happens.

Goodborg3 here is another option if you want actinics: http://www.marinedepot.com/md_searchitem.asp
The PHO metal halide PC combo pendant. It holds a single ended bulb. I decided to order this one with an Icecap 250 watt ballast for my 47 extra tall. I wanted actinics for a longer viewing time and I wanted to leave enough room under the hood to add a moonlight later on so this fit the bill. It came to around $450 including all the bulbs and power adapter to run the Icecap ballast. The shipping was free and I got a free Tee shirt to boot.
