I have a 40 breeder with a 6 bulb 36" tek light. I've retrofitted some time ago with two fans to exhaust the heat. Both fans are on one side of the fixture. I've read and saw one of the users here that fans should be on the side where the bulb's writting is. Supposedly this is the side that gets the most heat.

I also have an led strip with some royal blues, blues and violets that would attach to the Ati.

Question; is there a reason that I should change to an ati 6 bulb sunpower?. Will the light be much better?.

thanks,
Albert
