Just want to confirm a few things before I upgrade to the multi light RMS. I actually have a second radion laying around that I would like to add to my 60 gallon cube.

1. Would 2 radions fit on a multi-light RMS track on a rimless tank that is 23 7/8" wide? It seems like it could be a little tight.

2. The arms of the multi light are the same component as the single mount correct? I already have a single XR30 tank mount kit so I would only need an additional arm, small track, and two sliders but correct me if I'm wrong.

3. Would I have to be worried about this being a weight issue?
 
1. Two lights in a space of 23 7/8 would be tight but I believe doable, the lights are 11.8".
2. Your single RMS mount won't do you any good with mounting multiple lights. I'd sale it to put towards the multi light mounting kit. The uprights are different.
3. Weight should not be an issue. The Radions are not heavy.
I just went through this same exercise myself.

1. You can turn the lights horizontal or vertical to the bar. So that should be an issues. Actually to avoid bleed. I would turn them both vertical.

2. The arms are the same you are good there.

3. The whole setup is solid. And radions are light. No weight concerns at all.

Good luck. And post pics
 
The arms on the single and multi are the same arms. I got confirmation from Ecotech.
You must have spoken with someone I didn't or they were just trying to sale me something else. Good info to have for future. Thx
