[RC] solar heaters - Dot Wiggins

We have small solar panels that charge a lot of electric fence.  I have a
small solar panel and marine battery in my pickup camper that runs lights,
radio, fan, water pump, etc. Not very expensive.   Is there such a thing as
a solar powered heater for a stock water tank?   There are converters from
AC to DC and DC to AC, what would be needed to run a regular small tank
heater from solar?
I know there engineers out there, plus lots of practical experience.  Give
me some ideas.  I'm tired of chopping ice for the pasture horses.  (No power
out there.)

Thanks  much
