Good Nano system?

Hi all, im looking to downgrade from my 90 gal to a nano. Just dont have the time or energy to keep the big tank up.
Im thinking of going with a nano 20-40 gal with halides. Im thinking an all in one system would be good. Anybody have any good recommendations?
Ive been checking out the JBJ 28 gal and the Red Max 130D. The JBJ is about half the price of the Red Max, but ive been reading the halide model has a real problem with raising the tank temp significantly, so a chiller is necessary, plus there isnt much room in the back.
Havent read much at the Red Max 130D.
Any help or suggestions is greatly appreciated!

if you go with a JBJ, the 24's are better than the 28 for one reason: the "bowfront effect" really sux...the view is so distorted that we have that tank situated so we can view it thru the side panel. personally, i'd go with the RSM, which has a nice flat front panel.
the "plug-n-plays" go up quickly and make nice setups tho (4 of our 13 tanx are PNP type setups.) altho i prefer a more conventional type of AIO if given a choice, esp if i were going to have only one setup. we have a 25 gal custom acrylic AIO that is a super nice tank...i'd consider something like that, but a bit larger.
