I have a 180 gal and I'm switching from T5s. I want to mount this in my canopy, where are than fans on the unit located?

Leonardo is correct on all accounts, the placement pushes the air upward, they are quiet and so far I am enjoying them greatly and so are my corals stony and soft.

The unit has 3 fans located inside the lamp and the hot air exit is on the above face of the lamp, also I have to tell you that they are pretty quite, almost no sound, this is a great fixture.

A carbon filter with adjustable speed control will take warm air and contaminated air out. You dont need much air flow in because the t5's dont create any heat. I know this because I run Lush LED lighting. YOu will also want a small dehumidifier to keep humidity under 50%. Don't freak out when the the tent sucks inward. That is good because you have the right enviroment inside the tent.

rig it lol. I have one rigged to the front at the bottom, I bent the metal corners of the black metal screen to hold it.No actual fan slot afaik.I would do intake from the bottom, just use something to screen dust.

I measure 1 3/8 inches from the top of my tank edge to the top of the fixture. Be aware that the wire feet of the fixture hang outside the top edge of the tank, so there may be interference with your canopy at those points.

You can mount the indoor unit below the outdoor unit if you buy a condensate micro pump: http://www.klimaire.com/index.php/micro-pump.html

I used to have a picture of my setup up on the page, but it appears to have dissapeared. I attached a T to the outlet and placed a pressure tank on one outlet, and the water line to the other part of the T. I have had no issues. this is the tank i usedWatts DET-5 2.1 G Potable Water Expansion Tank for 50-Gallon Water Heaters

i think soi'm happy with mine on a 90 gal reef.i did however do some slight mods- an aqualifter pump to enhance the venturi overflow & get rid of bubbles- upgraded the skimmer pump to an ASM G1 (with a slight mod) for greatly improved skimmer action

Yes, I'm running it in mine. I have a plexi and I think it does a great job. I also have this on my 20 gallon puffer tank. You'll love it. Much better than the other makers.

This has been a very good fan, I have two. Circulation has to reach the bottom of the tank. I use one fan at each end of the tank going two different directions. With live rock, circulation and water changes, you don't have to have as much filtration. Hope this helps.

THERE ARE 2 POLES WHICH ARE ON TOP FOR YOU TOhang your lights and inline fan from. I have a 600w light and my fan on this.

a small portable tank would be attached on the right side and free standing. If you opt for the 20gallon hose connector kit and a larger 20gallon tank you would set the tank away and below the grill on the ground or right under it if using the solaire stand.

I modded the top of the case just above the CPU and installed an h100i. I cut out two holes for the fans to exhaust and screwed two 120mm fan filters on the top of the case so that it looks clean. My temps dropped hugely with the extra exhaust and the h100i fits perfectly. I wish they had an option for a top exhaust in the first place but my mod turned out great. I wouldn't recommend if you place a receiver or something on top of the case. My rack has shelves so it works perfect.

Yes! That's where you should put it; that's where I have my 29-gallon tank. Works just fine!

I too am using a wood canopy on my 55 gallon tank to keep cats out. The light works perfectly. It only stands maybe 1 - 2 inches above the tank, and it produces very little heat, so that is also another plus.

I have the fan outside under a canopy. It seems like a very good fan. It is very quiet and works well. I can't see any problems with it. Chris

Yes, mine is a fixture on my deck. The bottom unit is just tall enough to get the lp tank underneath. Open on inside and little to no heat transfer
