Just to be clear mine are not super loud but I can hear them drawing air, don't expect to be dead silent lol...
By the way your pics looks great, will like to see the full tank one day... I'm just afraid going to get more in to it than I'm already ahah

Thanks, I will take a look. I sourced out some noctua fans that has better cfm ratings and supposed to be extremely quiet but I will try the oil trick first.

Come by any time, don't be shy. lol

I think so but not sure.. but they had any kind of size fans, thinking Ati ask 15$+ probably can get top of the line there...
