Yeah sorry for the wait. I havent actually check with the fans off. I'm running a check right now to see what the temps and humidity are with the lights on and fans running. If it gets too hot I might add another intake fan to keep the temps down. Right now im running two 90 cfm 18dbs 120mm fans.

I would say map out everything before you start. If your going soil it will probably cheaper in the long run. I spent about 300.00 building this case but I went the extra mile and dynomated my case and used a 12v adapter to actually plug in my fans vs splicing in a cell phone charger. I found the adapter at coolerguy.com/840556029977. The case was the biggest cost overall. I spent 120.00 on that. Just let me know if you need any help with parts and ill try and guid to the right place.man it looks sick bro,

Are you talking about the air pump for my air stones? I left the air pump in the case at the very bottom just below the intake fan. It will have cool incoming air flowing over it. I'm sure if you could place it outside of the case and just run a long air line to your air stones. From what i have read but dont quote me on it because i'm still learning is that cooler air running to your stone is better to help cool the water. I'm also running a water pump it the small tank with water lines running to the grow baskets. My own little version of a bubbleponics.

Why would you spend $120 on a case?
$34 shipped. You'll need a pair of tin snips or a Dremel to cutout the drive cages.
I really like you'r rig though man, x-c-lent.

ran the case with the lights on part of the day and the hottest it got was 82.4 with 25% humidity. the temp was in range but the humidity was low, but that was without water in the small tank. just a test run before i start anything. i'll also do a test with water temp soon. looking for a good range between 70 and 75 degrees.

That looks like a awesome harvest. I'm hoping for the same results if not better using the scrog method.
I'll have to hit you up when I start.
