Look for the USTF12038 series fan (Toyo) ... there are 4 models I believe. The 76 cfm fan is very quiet I believe it's the 1152T. $17.60 per fan.

Hi Elmo18,
Check out your local Radio Shack. I got a 4'' fan for like $12.00.
I got the 120v one and wired it directly to an old power cord I had. The fan is extremely quiet.

"GOT SUMP" if you do just throw a big fan in your stand blowing right over the sump. I bought one of those 13.00 Honeywell fans from Home depot model # HT-800, I would say its about 8-10". This thing is mounted on the top of my stand blowing right down in the sump.....works great!

The sump fan is a good idea, and there are plenty that use the radioshack fans with success. I use the icecap, but they are more than your looking to spend.
