    Bought one for my 3ft tank. I agree with chingkt, it is expensive! Paid 5 red notes$50. Also bulky and a bit hard to angle it if you have huge light fixture.

    But it did bring the temp in my 3ft tank to 27 - 28 from 29 -30. So...

    Got one from Na. Turned the clip the other way round so that it won't hit my light. very very quiet... but.. the flowrate is not as powerful as i expected.

    My diyed 12x12 coolermaster fan looks better unfortunately at fraction of the cost.

    Advantage of this is probably the rotary type of fan and mounting style. The mounting allows for the fan to not take up any space above the tank surface as compared to those blow down axial fans, thus freeing up space for your lights. Its also very very quiet compared to normal axial fans. Cooling performace is pretty good... managed to cool my 30x30x35 (cm) tank to 25-26 degrees from normal singapore ambient air temperature. Note there are more than one variant for this fan... be sure to check before buying.
