Or change it to the an intake fan and make a 5x5 tent.

Kidding sorry couldn't resist. I agree with @roach

You want some negative pressure. Buy a speed controller if it’s too much as-is

run a intake filter combo down on the bottom,i run and fan and filter outside the tent,the pushes in and then use controlers to adjust intake in and exhaust out,i keep the intake fan on high and turn the exhaust fan on and thump the tent walls to i have neg pressure still sucking in sides but not were they suck the tent down,the intake will blow it out and turn the exhaust up to the tent just goes to neg pressure if you dig,come flower and heat believe me your gonna want that exhaust wide open

Have you put short pieces of hosing in for letting fresh air in? I put in two per tent (6” diameter)

More intake area will reduce the walls sucking in so much.

I like 4-5 times bigger than the exhaust hole. At least.

Just put a hoses in one of the holes? I really don’t wanna buy an intake fan? This fan has a controller already can i buy another one that will make it go even lower? Just don’t want light to get in during flowering that’s why i don’t want to open anything

No new fan, just add “cold air returns” to your tent, that allows air to enter your tent to replace what your exhausting out...The short hose pieces when bent into a 180 degree bend will stop any light, especially if it’s low on the tent. That also mixes the fresh air as it travels through and out of the tent via your exhaust fan. The screens keep out bugs...

If you’re sucking the air out of the tent and the walls are “caving” in a bit, maybe your vents are not open to allow new air flow in the tent.
