Wondering if anyone has designed a filter floss holder for a large innovative marine aquarium? I can only find small and midsize ones. I could design it but I suck at CAD, it is going to take me multiple iterations and I have a slow printer--so hoping one of you CAD bosses has done it already :beaming-face-with-smiling-eyes:.

Following along. I have an SR80 and have been interesting in finding designs/files for the larger IM tanks. If you happen to find what you’re looking for, would you mind sharing here?

I designed one and using now, but iterating improvements. Will share a couple versions here.

So I feel like I am going to be working on this for a few days. In the interim, here is the super chintzy one I made to get something in and stop the noise, which does work. I tried uploading as STL but doesn't appear the file type was allowed, so .ZIPped it.

Most recent version, but does not work well because the silicone in the corners of the false wall/glass prohibit the holder from sitting flush again weir. This one is tall to give the water a surface to adhere to as it runs down the walls of the grate, thus further quieting the fall of water from weir to sump water level.
 

Freshwater filter only or is it? Have you ever used an HOB filter on a saltwater tank?
