I think the upward vents are a good idea, although not sure if I need to fan air out, or let convection carry the heat. At least 2 in the sides to blow across, and I'm trying to figure out venting.
I've been looking everywhere for some small clip on fans, but it's not fan season around here I guess. Hydroponics shop had one, but almost 50 bucks. I'm really close to a Profilux to manage all this stuff now, and I hope to run without a chiller as it's pretty loud. Volume on the TV is way up with that thing running, and I'll be more popular around the house without it.

+1 on the CPU fans, get a 12V adapter and get a 6" CPU fan. Works great, lots of air movement, low noise, and best of all, cheap. If you're venting outside try a used building material place for an old bathroom fan and get a wall mount dehumidistat. I've been looking at doing this because if i have my fishroom window closed for a few days i get condensation on all windows in my house, and having the window open on some of these cold nights is probably costing a lot.
