If you're willing to take a punt, I'll try to source some of the 12cm Tricod (Nexus-alike) fans here and send them over and let you try them out. At 10-11v they'd push as much air as the Panaflo L1A's at 8v, and do it without anywhere near as much noise. I'd only ask for the cost of the two fans + postage, which would be around £11 all up.
That is so kind of you to offer Cathar Actually I have just ordered an L1A, otherwise I would take up your offer right now. Can I see how I get on with the 2 L1As (I already had one)- if I'm still not happy I'll try out the Tricods.
By the way, I just did a flow test with the Eheims. With only one on I get around 3 L/min in that system. With both on a shade over 5 L/min- I figure I believe you predicted in another thread
