Holder for baby zebrafish by nvladimus

Last crawled date: 4 years, 3 months ago
A model of baby zebrafish and a holder, which was used to mount immobilized (real) fish for microscopy.
The zebrafish can be 5-7 days old and 3-4 mm long, so these things are really SMALL.
The holder can be glued to the bottom of a dish for stability.
This thing is very hard to 3D print - it's working prototypes were made by a laser cutter from 3-mm acryl, with manual finishing by a sharp scalpel (together with Davis Bennett). If you manage to 3D print it - please let me know!
