This uses four 5" sections of plastic coat hanger to attach the two sides. You can use any length to make the box longer or shorter, but the sewing template is designed for 5" sections. I've designed it to hang level and sit lower than the glass lid on my rimmed 20 gallon long. Should fit most smaller rimmed tanks.
I've included a DXF and PDF template for sewing. The PDF is already broken up into 4 separate pages.
Materials:
Matte Tulle fabric or other nylon netting
Plastic coat hangers - 4x 5" 6mm diameter sections(you can also print these, file included)
Superglue
Print settings:
3 walls
PETG is considered aquarium safe
Assembly:
Superglue ends of the printed beams or sections of coat hanger into the end pieces of the model.
Sew cube out of netting using pattern. Sew it inside-out, then fold top 1/2" over a bungee or string to sinch the top,
Slip the net over the assembled box and sinch the net so it stays on. the benefit of this design is that it's easy to remove for cleaning.
