Spawn → Bulk fruiting chamber

Under my circumstances it's better off that the people in my house remain unawares of my cultivation. For this reason I wish to design a monotub chamber that can be hidden in a closet. I'm having some thoughts on how I could go about this, including using a computer fan pointing indirectly at the camber for air exchange and several blue LEDs mounted in the lid on a 12/12 timer. Would this work?

For optimal results, use a 6500K light. Do your roomates/parents go rummaging through your room?
If you can close your closet, odds are you can fit a normal 6500K light into there and nobody will notice (no need to buy LEDs especially if they are not rated for the correct kelvins), but if whoever you live with is somebody who rummages through your shit then it wouldn't be a good idea to grow at your house (no shit!)
You can place a small fan (I mean small, like a computer fan) blowing towards the wall behind your monotub and it will circulate air, but it won't be as good as just leaving a monotub out in your room. If you plan on doing PF cakes with a shotgun fruiting chamber, DO NOT use a fan, you will fuck everything up, no matter the size of the fan.
Any other tub is a bad idea. SGFC for cakes are fine. Monotubs for bulk grows are fine. I wouldn't recommend any other style.

Can the 6500k bulb be mounted into the top of the chamber? If so would I be able to cover the rest of the chamber in foil so no light escapes?

Use a normal tub. If you want a tub that doesn't allow light to escape then buy a colored tub, not a clear tub. Make a hole into the lid of tub and adhere plastic wrap to the hole in the lid with some tape. Mount your light outside the top of the tub (so light is shining through the plastic wrap and into your tub. Don't mount a light inside the tub, the tub will be very humid and you are just asking for an electrical fire if you put it inside the tub.
Use some common sense.
