got a 1x1x2m tent, and a 150mm supernova 600w setup,
also i got a 150mm carbon filter setup ttfan etc...

my problem is my fan does not fit in the fan holes in the side of my tent, so i cant secure it, and the tents only meant to hold 30kg...

where am i putting this filter? lol its bloody heavy

A 5" filter? And you're worried about 30kg? Damn man, how much do you think they weigh?
30kg is quite literally a suitcase and a half of stuff. Airport limits are 20keys. I've struggled a lot more with my luggage than I have picking up a carbon filter.

You don't fit your fan in the holes in your tent, you fit ducting through it, lololol

Your not meant to put the fan in the actual holes mate... You usally have it at the top right or left hold hanging from the top bars with some sort of hanging device like a jack chain and the ducting is what goes through the holes

It goes carbon filter -> fan -> ducting -> out the hole

Just in case too, this sounds like a case of: -
Your reflector will come with a cover over the reflective side being plastic, usually blue. This needs to be removed. Always makes me laugh when noobs leave this bit on lol

This has got to be one of the best threads I've read for entertainment value in the short time I've been here on THCtalk.
Ranging from the OP's title of the thread, to everyones comments too!

Hope you're sorted ok now geezer!

You can hang the filter from one of the roof rails using two jackchains or bungies and run ducting from the filter to your inline - I had to have mine outside the tent because the light shade use to get in the way because it was so big.

So mine goes : carbon filter -> ducting -> out the hole -> fan.
