Anyone know where I can get goods cooling fans for my planted tank. not alot of room to work with here. Ballasts are on the side of the canopy and top is full of lights so I will have to mount them on the back of canopy. Any help? Thanks

only thing i've came up with is those cheap 5" desk fans that have clamps on them
i opted for built in fans on my canopy lights

either that or search for small squirrel cage fans.
I think www.selectproducts.com , www.partsexpress.com , and www.mcmaster.com all have them
and let me know if you have a question about wiring them
you can get a power supply from a pc and wire the fans to that and should work fine. the only thing you would need is some type of switch.
Well I have one from JBJ but it cost me $45.00. I have it set up on my timer when the lights and the co2 go off, so does the fan but I want to find something cheaper. I went to radio chack and they have some there but they have like 24 guage wire and a regular 115 volt plug setup has 18 guage and I dont want to have crimped wires with connectors around my tanks so I guess I will have to just deal with it. It would be easier but I built my own canopy so i coukld mount my ballasts on the canopy sides. What a mistake that was. LOL. Thanks for the input by the way.
