Looking for a fan for my sump


I am looking for a small (6" to 8") fan to blow across/into my sump. What I really want is a fan with a clip that I could attach to either the sump itself, or a cross brace in the stand. I know I have seen these somewhere, but can't find one now. I have looked at Target & Wall Mart. Any other places to check? Maybe I have to wait for the weather to warm up for the selection to get better.

Thanks.

I got mine at Walmart, it is 6" with a clip and didnt cost very much. I have been using mine for a couple of years now without any problems.

I got mine at target in woodbury was about $10-$15. Clip on six inch oscilating and works great. This was about a month ago.

I got one at Target too. I think it was less than $10, has a clip on, it is oscillating and I'd say it's about 6" .

I like the Lakewwod 8" fans from WalMart. It doesn't have a clip, suspend it with a coathanger-wire/zip-tie setup. I have 5 in all; 2 in tankroom vents, 1 in canopy, 1 for tankroom circ, and one over the sump.
They're quiet on the lowest setting, but quite loud on medium. I have one that has run continuously on low for 2 years now, and it only cost $13.
