I’ve noticed a problem with my hood on my fluval 13.5 was the open gap for feeding the fish. The problem was that I have a firefish who could jump out. So, I designed this cover and printed it out. The design could use some modification, but I’m on the right track.

Always thought that was for the little cooler they sell that fits in there. Either way I hated the stock light and hood first upgrades were a new lid from top lids and light form current which I regret and would've gone kessil


Good stopper tho!

Should post this up in the 3d printed items forum see if anyone wants to buy some!

That’d be great, though it’s nowhere near complete yet. It has a problem where it falls easily into the tank if placed improperly, so it will take a while to make something that fits better. Thanks for the interest though!
