definitely need fans, that U channel doesn't have much meat to it. For optimal spectrum you want the LED running at 74 degrees. (not possible without extensive active cooling) but that should be your guidelines. Doesn't make sense to me to make something for an 11 year life cycle and then come up short on protecting it with such thin thermal management.
