Only need one if your temps are high in the resviour, water pump and air stones could add heat, along with the lights depending what you use, space, etc.
You also don't wanna go buying one, they become very expensive and you get them by the HP. So 1/4, 1/2, etc, the bigger you go the more they are, I think they are 800$+ but maybe you do depending on your scale.
Or maybe try to do a DIY with a 12V thermoelectric peltier, or find an aquarium chiller, depending on your access to water you could do cool water from a tap and it cools your stuff in a different resviour, then drains, water could be cheaper then electricity so a hydro cooling system could be benifical.
I would guess you want the water you give your plants around 68 degrees as it will hold the most oxygen for your plants, and keeping the air pump in a cooler spot will help pump cooler air into the resviour.
Not sure if any of this really answered your question
