A cheaper alternative is mini fan from the superstore such as Giant, Carrefour and etc. But be careful the fan drop into the tank or when you have kids running around.
Thinking of getting a fan for my 55litres tank...
any advise on what type of fan to buy & anything to take note when buying a fan...

o i bought a 7" fan...then realised cannot put the fan in the center of the tank. Only can put at the side of the tank...Originally Posted by barmby
temperature didnt drop as much as i expected...think only 1deg drop
previously using a square type of fan achieve 28+ deg....and now with the 7"fan also 28+deg ..aiyo
Hi, for larger tanks, there wont be much a temperature drop, lucky if it goes down by 2 deg. It also largely depends on your room temperature.
Can get a computer fan from sim lim cheap cheap too
Sounds like a case of high ambient temperature. My smallish, slightly whiny Dymax hang on side fan (blowing across width of tank), brought my tank's temperature down by an average of 3 degrees. Temperature now between 25 to 27 (sometimes but rarely go higher than 2. My tank is 125 litres, far from direct sunlight and smack in the middle of a breeze going from kitchen windows to living room windows.
I suugest finding ways to lower room's ambient temperature and improve room's ventilation. For safety sake, go for the DC type.
