What kind of advantage is there for putting Chromatic Lantern in a 2 color deck,
Is it worth putting in the deck for mana fixing?
Are there any other benefits other than that plus being ramp?
What format? Im guessing EDH since Chromatic Lantern is not played much in other formats.
No, if you are 2 color Chromatic Lantern is pretty underwhelming. Its a mana fixing card, and if you are 2 colors you shouldn't have any problems with mana fixing. There are plenty of cmc3 mana rocks that do more. Even Selesnya Locket (or whatever colour combination you have) are better since you get to draw cards from it. Chromatic Lantern is good in 4+ color decks.

Exactly what smackjack said, 2 color decks shouldn't run any rocks over 2 cmc. Cards like Thran Dynamo are an exception because you get a greater return.
