hey guys what do you think a good CFM is for a 48x24x60 (4x2x5) grow room? also maybe pros and cons of inline ducking fan like this

or the more common inline fan like this

Here we go…*http://www.phreshfilter.com/selector.php
- this will give you the CFM…*then you just look at what the CFM is rated on the fans your looking at.

if it helps any… i'm using a 4.5'x4.5'x7' tent using a 6" fan rated at 340CFM
