Hey @tharbin if you're interested in a Leopard Wrasse, LE has them for $40.
Thanks, unfortunately, I'm still waiting to be sure the fish are all okay after the Copperband. So far they seem fine.

PLA after one year and 2 months in the tank.

Loss of color.

Is it brittle? Or seem ok?

Did you do any icp testing after it had been in for a bit to see if it was leaching anything?

I think it's just PLA, it breaks down in UV. It's not brittle yet. I doubt there's anything leaching out other than corn. We probably introduce more foreign materials from our hands constantly in the tanks.

To many letters not enough brain power
I have vague ideas about 3D printed stuff and what’s made from

PLA is made from corn byproducts or something like that.

Yup, so maybe a form of carbon dosing as it breaks down.

Some people have used it in the tank for years, others had it crumble in a years time.

It was one of my first prints, experimenting, I just haven't reprinted in PETG yet as it still works.

PLA parts of my first floss roller got super brittle. In the sump so shaded too.
