Description

Filter Basket specifically designed for a Fluval Spec III Aquarium, but it may fit the Fluval Spec V as well.

This is a remix of https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:5599558. It was modeled from scratch but inspired in every way by this original.

I slightly increased the depth and width dimensions to make it a more snug fit in the Spec III. Over all dimensions are 106mm x 51mm x 220mm (Width x Depth x Height). I also made all of the parts snap to each other where the dividers and cover snap into the main basket. I also made some design for 3D Printing improvements where no supports are necessary, thin walls are an even number of extrusion width, no sharp corners on the build plate, and a bottom chamfer instead of a fillet.

I suspect the tolerances from the manufacturer for this section in the Aquarium might vary some. I designed this for a snug fit in mine but I don't have others to compare to, so it may be good to check your dimensions (specifically the 106mm x 51mm). You should be able to do minor scaling of all the parts in the slicer without affecting the fit of the parts if needed. For reference I took ~3mm off each of those dimensions I measured at the top since the column was not even all the way down. Mine measures 108.8 x 53.9 and I rounded to an even 1.0mm.
