growtent heat problem

hello everyone, i have a question please. i have one grow tent 1x1x1.80 sized, and i use both mh and hps 400 watt, but the thing is, the heat is getting over 35 degrees and i dont know what to do with it. i have non air cooled reflector( just a basic one). so what i ask is, what type of fans i do need, and if i buy an aircool tube and can fans, is it gonna solve it?

I had the same issue and FORTUNATELY was able to buy cooltubes and an inline fan. Problem solved. Proper airflow will bring your temp way down.

Cool tube brother. I had the same problem and it fixed it.

Thank you all guys, yes, two days ago ive ordered the cooltube and the duct fan, the solution has come

unless you get a big ass fan thats still going to be a lot of heat. i have a 32x60x80 tent, was running 2 400 watt hps, was too damn hot. went to one 400 and one 250...still too damn hot, with both lights in cool tubes and a 240 cfm fan running wide open when the lights were on.
i finally went with one 400 watt hps and a led that has an actual draw of 195 watts, now my tent stays around 80 with the lights on and the fan only runs at 75%, which is much quieter

You simply CAN NOT RUN an open hood HPS/MH light in a tent. You have GOT to run a cooled housing. Cool tubes work great. Cooled housings also work well, but not as well as a cool tube does.
