Best feeding portal recomendation

[USMA36]

I’m looking for a feeding portal recommendation for my diy mesh lids. I tried the Neat Aquatics but it was utter garbage. Disintegrated over 6 months time. Must be something with the uv light and the 3d printed material. I can’t find many options. I see a Neat version 2 on BRS but it says nothing about what the difference is between the new and the old.

Awesome, thanks for the advice. Any issues with lights degrading the plastic, that was my issue with the other one they sell. Does the lid come off easily? I don’t see a handle or anything in it. How wide would you say the opening is?

Sounds like your original printed one was PLA. If you’re going to print/buy a printed one, make sure it’s ABS or at least PETg.
