Fan Options – Tunze

Fans can be a great tool to cool your reef and eliminate the need of a costly chiller. Unfortunately, there are not very many fan options out there that fit in with rimless tanks.  There are the profilux aluminums and azoo clip ons…but they are a bit distracting.

Fans can be a great tool to cool your reef and eliminate the need of a costly chiller. Unfortunately, there are not very many fan options out there that fit in with rimless tanks.  There are the profilux aluminums and azoo clip ons…but they are a bit distracting.

We found this Aquawind fan made by Tunze and thought it would work great for many users. Relatively unknown we were going to give it a try, but it just turns our with our spot’s we need heating more than cooling. The small vents at the bottom allow the horizontal mount while still blowing air across the water’s surface for maximum cooling. Maybe the LED’s are a little PC geek, but if anyone tries them let us know how you like them. Tunze has them listed at $75, they can be purchased directly from TunzeUSA

    Looks like they took a laptop cooler and jacked up the price.

    There are blue LEDs in the fan. And yes the connection is actually a standard USB. Not sure if they are controllable.

    I just ordered the fan i hope it works out for me I have a euro brace on top but roger at tunze says it will open up 1 1/8 thats exactly how much i will need for it to fit. Does it have LEDs in the fan?
  • @Richard,

    I have a few photos, but nothing showing the bottom clip. The Fan blows at a horizontal angle across the water, rather then directly at it. It is somewhat difficult to describe without seeing it in person, but the fan and evaporation effect is there.

    any pics of the bottom clip? im trying to figure out why it is not aiming towards the water on the top of the tank

    This looks like something to mod a gaming PC. Is that a USB port on the back?

    Firewire for faster speeds... duh.


    ;o)


    We agree. At the very least remove the metal guards.
  • I just ordered a profilux 3 fan model. We''ll see how it works.
  • LOL!!! Cool! For some reason I was expecting the fans to be vertical. :)

    Hi Chris,

    If you look to the left and right you can see the glass where it's clamped on. In the middle of the photo the clamp is visible.

    A google of "Azoo fan" will show many suppliers. I believe Dr. Foster and Smith carry them. HTH.
  • Looks promising. I can't for the life of me tell how it secures to the tank though. Where can one find the Azoo clip ons?
