🖨️ Printing Recommendations:

💡 Aquarium Tips:

Like most plastic prints, this model will float. You must weigh it down by gluing it to a slate rock, burying the base in heavy substrate, or filling the hollow inside with gravel/resin during or after printing. Ensure your material is food-safe/aquarium-safe if used with live animals.
