There was a article that says cooler light tubes can increase the PAR to the foreground of the tank. That's why most DIY light canopy people installed fans...

I never used hopar light set before therefore couldn't ans your question. Both are made in china so choose one which got fan? Maybe some other bros who used them before can verify which is better.

I have used aquazonic light set before and they are just a average joe product
