Description
Lift your Fluval Plant LED light off the water and clear of the tank with this neat light riser, designed for rimless aquariums with 10 mm glass. It slides securely onto the glass and the Fluval light's adjustable arms slot into the top — raising the light for better coverage, easier access, and a cleaner look.
Crucially, the light can't be bumped off once seated, so there's no risk of an expensive LED ending up in the tank. May also fit other Fluval LED lights with similar mounting arms.

💡 PETG has held up well over several years in a damp aquarium setting. You need a pair: one riser per side of the tank.
Print two risers (one per side); print with supports for the glass-slot section and remove them cleanly.
Slide a riser onto each side of the 10 mm rimless glass.
Slot the Fluval light's adjustable arms into the top of the risers.
Light: Fluval Plant LED (may suit other Fluval LED lights)
Tank: rimless aquarium with 10 mm glass
Entered in the Fish Tank Tweaks contest. If you print a pair, post a make — I'd love to see your setup!
