I am looking for silent cooling fans to add either to my display or sump. I'm running a rimless tank so my criteria is sleek and quiet. Nothing bulky. I also run a Profilux 4 so I have checked out the GHL fans but they are pricey. Let me know what you are running on your tanks.
 
That one looks good and the price is right for sure! I was thinking about adding one to the sump for just keeping moisture out of the stand, and then a second on the tank itself. I'm running Halide/T5 plus two LEDs so moving the air across the tank is probably a good idea. I like that this fan is low cost so easily replaceable.

I used to run t5 and used this on both ends of the tank parallel to the t5, not pointed towards the tank, and it actually did a really good job. Doesn't look too nice though but is dead silent.
