ice cap fans

Can anyone help? I have 2 fans I want to put in my canopy.Should I place them from the top down with both pushing the airflow into the tank's water or directly across one with the airflow in and the other out. I didn't want to put them on the side's because u can see them. Which way would it be most affective?

Your best bet would be to place one fan at each end of the canopy. Have one bringing air in and the other one pulling the air out.

That is how mine is set up. 1 in and 1 out. It seems to work pretty good.
