I used some 4" computer fans from Radio Shack on a 6' tank, 2 on each end, one pulling air and the other pushing. I think they were around $25 each, I ran the power into the same power strip with the halides and a timer so they came on together.

I used 4 inch computer cooling fans in my Halide enclosures for years to pull excess heat out. They worked very well. I use them now to pull heat out of my equip. room and they work well in that application also.
