I paid $20 with shipping. I don't have a 3d printer so I figured it's a fair price for time, materials, and shipping.@Isaac Alves You mind if I ask what you paid for those adapters?
Absolutely is a fair price.I paid $20 with shipping. I don't have a 3d printer so I figured it's a fair price for time, materials, and shipping.
I’ve made some 3d printed adapters for mine that work pretty well.

So I've got my order in. Steven from Precision Converting LLC is wonderful. He's full of information. He presented his choice for the best match to the RedSea ReefMat.
Ultimately he is charging me $10 per roll of Precon2, 6.7" x 50 yds. 2" ID 50 micron nominal media -- which is closest to the RedSea material. He has a two roll minimum so I went with 8 for now and should get them next week. Shipping to my location came out to $17. So each roll with shipping is costing me $12.22. That’s 10 more feet at a 1/3 the cost
Note that there is an adapter required to go from the Precon 2" ID tube to the 1.5" required to fit the RedSea ReefMat 1200. Luckily Steven has a contact that makes these and I connected with this person and got the adapter ordered for $20 including shipping.
I'll note how it goes.
Hi karsa, Are the STLs for the adapters posted somewhere I can download?I’ve been using preconfilter rolls on my 500 for a few months now. 3D printed my own adapters and everything has been working great through the first couple rolls and much less the cost of redseas rolls.
