Electric bill and Filtration.

The FX5s use 50watts per hour compared to about 10 for the AC110s. That means you can run 5 AC110s or 1 FX5. I meter mine at home.

I Thought so. The fxs use 3 times the power than the ac 110. I was thinking it might be those Heaters.
Tr6 I will give up My wife before My Fronts. But I may consildate and thin out.
 
Something else that I thought I would mention. Go to home depot and get you a power meter and plug your powerstrip into it and monitor it for 24 hours. It will tell you exactly how much you are using in those 24 hours, which will help a ton on estimating the heaters. I purchased one of these items and pluged it into my house. I went from using 94 kwh per day to 41kwh per day. That means I cut my electricity bill in half. All of these small things that are left on add up in a hurry. Here is a link to the meter tool.

That is a Great Idea! Thanks I will! Sounds like the tool that I need.
No More guessing!
 
Any update on this? I'm curious how much your tank is using.
