Remember that a lot of reefers go to great lengths to keep their tanks 
COOL. That's the big market for the pricey chillers you see in catalogs you 
know. Corals are more picky than plants... And after all, you did say they 
wiere CORALife lights ;-)

BTW, easy fan-quieting method is to use a sheet of urethane between the fan 
and the mounting surface, and use silicone or rubber washers on the screw 
heads where they meet the mounting surface.
