nice hood it seems short thou. Are you having a chiller installed for the tank?

Looking very cool so far!

I was planning to install six 40CFM cooling fans to bring air in and out of the hood. I hope this is enough air movment otherwise I will rebuild with 2ft of height instead of 8inches. I was trying to make the hood as compact as I can.

What height from the water is it sugested to have the bulbs?

Alright I'm starting to layout the cooling, I went and picked up some heavy duty cooling fans two 100 CFM fans and two 32CFM fans thats a total of 264 cubic feet of air moving a min. here is some pics of a layout. any help would be great thx
