After printing the hydroponics tower and adapting it to live on a 2 gallon bucket, I needed a way to pass the power cord for the pump that lives in the bucket through the lid without a gaping light leak that would encourage algae. 25x20 is the size of most two-prong power cords on small aquatic submersible pumps. Cut the 25x20 hole in your bucket lid (or model the hole into your container adapter) and then pass the power cord from the inside of the bucket out through the hole. Then, flex the light blocking cover at the gap and slip it over the power cord (usually lamp-cord sized wire). Snap or glue the light blocking cover into the hole you made for the power cord end, and you're ready to go with power on, light out.
Printing - I suggest removable snug supports in generic PETG profile (with PETG of course - ir you choose prusament or a high temp PETG, use the appropriate filament profile in the slicer).
