IceCap Fans, are they worth the money?

[trmiv]

I need some fans for my new 90 gallon, and I'm stuck on what to get. On my current 37 I use a 4" computer fan wired to an AC adapter. It works pretty well, but it can get loud if I turn it up. I'm considering picking up the IceCap fans for the 90, if they are worth the steep price. I can setup a decent 4" computer fan and AC adapter for around $12. Or spend $43 on the IceCap fan. Is it really worth the price difference?

bump, going to buy a 48" pfo deluxe hood with ether twin pfo fans or the optional ice cap fans. I wonder if the ice cap fans are worth the money?

no just get quiet 120v 120mm fans and run them at full speed.
~15 bux a pop, should be as quiet or quieter than your pumps on a decent sized system.

I'm also looking at Yate Loon 120mm, Akasa Amber Series 120mm, or Panaflo 120mm fans. Can't decide what to get.

Have you done a search for cooling fans on this forum. Tons of threads. They are where I got all my ideas.

Or the DIY forum.
