Modular and parametric internal aquarium filters enclosures. Requires a pump.
I did a few write ups about experimenting with 3D printing interior filters. The latest post can be found at:https://smolderingdiode.com/3d-printed-aquarium-filters-part-3-medium-filters/
Filter bodies are OpenSCAD and the pump connectors were created in Tinkercad.
The pump connectors have to be made to fit each pump. The example .stl files are for pumps that I bought at the following:
small pump connector.stl - goes with a 160 gph pump found here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/90-1450-GPH-Aquarium-Fish-Tank-Fountain-Submersible-Water-Pump/253979919126
pump connector.stl - goes with a 160 gph pump with a less complex interface, found here:https://www.ebay.com/itm/160-1600-GPH-Adjustable-Submersible-Water-Pump-Aquarium-Fish-Fountain-Hydroponic/252186482181
The pipes, outflow ends, and pump connectors will be added later.
I've been using PETG 3D printed pumps for about a year and a half now They're holding up well so far.
