    Default Computer fan to control humidity

    I need to lower the humidity level of my tank from 95% at night to 75% at night. I have a 6 inch screen on top of my vertical tank conversion.

    I have seen builds where the person uses a small computer fan to blow room temp air in to lower the humidity, but what do I look for when I go to purchase one?

    Thanks Thad

    Hi Thad,
    I use an 'Azoo Cooling Fan' in the summer. It works great.

    Thanks for the advice I found one that runs off a USB cable so I can plug it into the wall with an old Ipod charger
