+KimP Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I need to replace some muffin fans in my sump area and also get one for my light fixture. Can anyone recommend a good place to buy them? The price varies so widely! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mFrame Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 I just replaced the two in my biocube with these Noctua brand fans that I purchased from Amazon. I tried looking everywhere locally, your best bet is going to be Fry's Electronics. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009NQMESS/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage I absolutely LOVE these fans. They run totally silent, a definite upgrade. I had to snip the connector to splice on the old one (new one has 3 pins, old had 2), but that was easy to do. The yellow wire is the speed adjustment, normally not used in aquarium equipment. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jestep Posted December 2, 2016 Share Posted December 2, 2016 ^+1. I use noctua's in any computer or server build that needs to be really quiet, have seen them in servers inside recording studio's a number of times as well. Hands down the best and quietest fans available IMO. I typically get mine on ebay or newegg. They offer a ton of sizes and PN's so just make sure the size, voltage, and number of leads on the connectors is correct for what you need. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
