I am building a fixture to house an actinic bulb for my tank. Should I add in a fan to keep it cool? It is 32w. I just realized that I didn't even think of it when I was mapping this whole plan out.

I say yes to fans if the ballast will be in the fixture.

 

With no ballast, I think you can get away with some vent holes. You definitely need to give the heat someplace to go.
