The desining is really fantastic. I hope my cancer is happy.

Your tank looks great! And thanks for the review 🙂 I do think you made a type mistake, and a bit of a strange one 😅

:-) @Rossero It's likely just a language issue. In German, "Krebs" means both cancer and crayfish.

I needed supports for it to print just right and even still mine wasn’t perfect (my settings aren’t perfect so I’m sure it was my fault not the design)! Looks great and all pieces aligned without needing to size up or down on the pins. (edited)

I've been looking for a cool decoration for the working aquarium for a while now. This mine is perfect. It looks cool, was easy to print and goes down really well with my colleagues.

Amazing design!

Printed with Inland Tough PLA, 10% infill

Printed without problems.

Came out great. Floats wonderfully. Even sways in the water current. Would like to see longer chained version just to have variety.

Came out great ! A bit too high for my tank but overall perfectly fine !
Ricardo approuved !

@Jaqn_1795202 You can easily cut off some links on the mine side and it should still work

Made this as a father's day gift. My tolerances are off so I just welded the whole thing together.

Nice model, easy print, functional chain. Amazing.. :)

Nice easy print. Waiting for my table tennis ball to complete it and send to my grandson for his fish tank. Brilliant thanks.
