You want a 8” tall filter with a good 8” fan to pull the air through it but if I was you I’d have 1 600w hps light covering a 1.2-1.5 square meter area 2 m is pushing it abit you may want 6 1000watts for that 🙏🏻

It would be possible - for ventilation it is LxWxH to give your volume in cubic meters, then you want a fan that will pull that amount of air every 3 minutes. I would use LED rather than HPS for temperature concerns. Good luck!
