You can print another fan shroud for the layer fan: http://repables.com/r/212/
Click the arrow on the right of download to get just the stl.

You also will need the fan which is here: http://seemecnc.com/collections/parts-a ... blower-fan

The second fan is wired in parallel with the first fan.

Could I in theory wire three of the together without drawing too much current? Thanks.

I run 3. Mainly for symmetry / even coverage.

Fans require very little power, so you're fine.
