Hey guys,

I have an Octo Lux (Reef Octopus) Slim Flow and the return outlet is as shown in the image. I was thinking it would be good to have options to direct the flow rather than just blast the front glass.

Since the back panel is acrylic and I have no way of getting behind it I was wondering if there was some way to add a threaded or snap fitting. Perhaps a 3d printed adapter to cover the grate that could be bonded using acrylic cement.

Wondering if anyone here has ever had a similar thought?

I know vivid creative aquatics has some neat adapters for their random flow generators but they all screw on to the redsea and waterbox units such as this.

Cheers

Ugh - Bump here as anyone that gets this tank and plans to keep a sandbed will have the exact same headache.
