Looking for GOOD fans for a 3X3 tent

OK so over the years i have played with and changed many things in my tent.
One thing i have never really been happy with is my circulating fans in the tent.
I have used mini desk fans that do not move enough air
tower fans but they take up too much room in a 3x3
i had some 6" clip-on's that i lasted like 6 months and then i got some oil looking stuff leaking out them and they died.

i thought about getting some high CFM computer fans and making my own?

what do you guys use?

I've have some AC infinity axial muffin fans that have been going for a few years. Ive used brackets or zip ties to attach to poles and have hung them with ratchet hangers with moderate success. Many of these type of rack mount or server type fans have MTBF of over 50,000 hours, which is why I went that route.

5 year warranty .
Only have had it less than a month so far but hydro store guy claims his has ran for 8 years. Warranty is what sold me .very sturdy and isn't very loud

I have a few of those fans in other projects I have done. Happy with them.

You have the 120mm? Do they have enough power to make the plants move.

Thats a in-line exhaust fan.
Or are you using that as a circulating fan?

Before hooking my carbon filter up I did lol. Worked great . kept the tent ducts open and hung near it blowing into the tent & air circulated and plants moved. Then when stink came hooked up ducting & filter . just got a crappy 6 inch clip on now barely works but airs moving lol.
(4x2 tent)

I'm gonna go with PC fans in my next setup. Some of them have a life expectancy of 160k-200k hours, are super quiet, efficient and move more than enough air.

I have had hurricane 6” clip fans running in tents for up to 4 years 24/7. A couple needed replacement in 3. But if kept clean especially in the vents to the motor they can last longer.

I like these for tight spacs: https://www.amazon.com/Soleus-FT-25-Table-Wall-Fan/dp/B01177HG92
