Hey all,

One of my very small clowns found his way through the teeth of my overflow into chamber 1 in my waterbox. Luckily I found him before it was too late!

I have access to a 3D printer at my school (though i will need to provide the robotics teacher with the info). I was wondering if anyone has a file for an overflow screen to protect more inhabitants from finding their way through that hole.

Kraken Reef sells the 3D printed screen protector for a very reasonable price but the students here at school get very excited about helping out with the tank and 3D printing so I would like to give them a little project. As well as get the holes protected ASAP.

Thanks for your help!

If you can provide dimensions, I can model it up for you.
Hi Bufu - I'd be interested in purchasing an overflow screen for the Waterbox cube 20 if you can make them.

The dimensions are
2 3/4" wide (I use the InTank media basket which makes it about 1/4" narrower)
1 3/4" tall but 2" wouldn't hurt
1/8" thick (overflow lip)

Here's a link to KrakenReef's website to see their design


Please let me know if you can do this. Black would be my preference. Thanks!
