Customizable Aquarium Hose Filter

thingiverse

This is a customizable filter that you can connect to a hose or intake pipe. I created it to allow water changes with a hose while preventing fish or plants from being sucked in. I suppose you could also use this to replace a broken intake filter as well. The "holes" in the filter section are approximately 3mm x 3mm. The OpenSCAD design makes use of the Arc module created by T3P3 and available under GPLv3 license: http://www.youmagine.com/designs/4765 Print Settings Printer Brand: FlashForge Printer: FlashForge Creator Pro Rafts: No Supports: No Resolution: 0.2 Infill: 15% Notes: I printed this vertically at a slower speed and slightly lower extruder temperature in order to allow for successful bridging while doing the upper conical part. I suggest using a food grade/food safe filament. This probably means avoiding ABS, and sticking with clear/natural PLA or PET/PETG.
