Maybe folk could use this thread to ask quick questions about their enclosures...or ohp mods
i currently have two 6cm 12v fans spinning away one at the back drawing air in and one at the front sucking it out...
Is this the best way or should i have two sucking in or two sucking out, beasically looking for the best way to get the hot air out of it....
Thanks in advance...

Two blowing out and one sucking in would definetly be better than 2 blowing in and 1 sucking out. Hope that helps.
Honestly when we do Hoods for large aquariums( 5-6, 400watt MH lights) we always have the fans blowing out and just have holes for the intake, the best way I have found is holes at the bottom( same size as fans) and the fans at the top blowing out. thats My WHOLE 2 american cents.
Believe it or not intake fans screw up the air flow inside the case itself.
Your best bet is a blower type fan for the light assembly blowing directly on the light / ir filter itself and one or two outtake fans.
