Description
This is a surface skimmer for the Fluval 07-series canister filters. This contains all the parts you need in order to print and mount your surface skimmer and enjoy that crystal clear and clean surface, free from scum and debris.
T-Joint:
This is the part that mounts to the gray rubber seal on your intake hose. Print with the thick side down. Use a brim and support material.
Elbow:
Print with the flat part at the print bed. Brim and supports don't hurt.
Skimmer funnel:
This is the floating part that fits within the chunky part of the elbow. Print with wide part at print bed.
Sieve:
This protects your shrimp and fry while filtering our larger pieces of debris. Attach this with CA glue to the Skimmer funnel.
See image to get an idea of how the parts go together. STEP-files included if you'd like to modify the model.
