According to the link I can get

SilenX IXtrema Blue LED 120mm as CPU Fan or
Thermaltake Silent Cat 9CM CPU Fan

I was going to get the 2nd one because it's only $13. I wanted to know where can I find more compatible fans. What do I look for?

It looks tall, Will it clear everything in your case?

Here's a flat model
