YIpee...just completed DIY 2 sets of fans at a time... Each set consists of 2 5 by 5 itches.. fan..IT reduces my tank temperature by 5 degree clusius ..when my MH is on.. so now i have a cool and nice temperature at 27 Degree in the afternoon and 25-26 in the night.. THis few days was so free ,nothing to do at home so DIY 2 sets at a time. The two fans were fixed into a 2 holes excetly and the wooden pannel was rested on my top hood of my tank..since bored at home, willing to DIY for anyone who is interested . So decided to sell one set to anyone who is interested.. THANKS.. :thanks:

noticed that the 2 fans are placed in differnt position..The one on the left side is to placed downside.. cous its purpose is to sucked up all the stale air and to chill down the tempeture so that the warm air can be sucked up ..and on the right side is placed upwards ..Its purpose is to bring down the water temperature by blowing cool air in to the tank..And you notice there is a cycle ..where cool air is brought in by the left fan and warm and stale air is sucked up by the right fan.. :lol: No more stale air (fishy smell ) in the tank ..And i noticed that there is also wave produced ..Take a look at the pic.. :lol:
