Which Heat Recovery Ventilator to buy? 1600 Sq-Ft home? HRV for Humidity

I need to get a Heat Recovery Ventilator (HRV) to help tackle my humidity problem. What's a decent lower cost unit for my home/situation?

Here's my details-
I live in Western NY (colder climate)
1600 Sq-Ft 2 story home. Gas furnace and A/C.
600 Total gals, 400gals display on 1st floor & 200 gal sump in basement.

I currently have an inline fantech exhaust fan sucking air outside from the main room where display tank is. I also have dehumidifier running 24/7 in basement where sump is. It's not all keeping up with the humidity during these colder months. Getting some mold in places around house, cold walls and couple windows.

Many Thanks,
Brent
