Default Will these work?
What do you guys think about using fans like this for a Canopy,

BUYEXTRAS.COM

Canopy will have 2x 250w M/H's and 2x 110w VHO Super Actinic bulbs.

I was thinking that 2 of those fans should work correct? Or do you recommend getting more then that? Or do you recommend another type of fan? Any input is most appretiated !

Noticed the fan is 24v, you might want to consider just simple computer case fans which are 12v. I use a computer case fan for some evap cooling on my tank. Works great but has to be replaced every 3 months or so as it burns out from salt creep.
