We have very hard water that contains a lot of calcium due to the limestone geology in our area. As a result, the minor splashing that occurs at the top of the otherwise beautiful Fluval Edge aquarium creates tan deposits on the top of the glass aquarium (see before photo). So I created this splash guard that fits inside the lip of the opening at the top of the aquarium. It has a cutout to accommodate the pump and power cable for a heater. You can see in the after picture how nice it keeps the top of the aquarium after I cleaned up the mess from before.

This splash guard is designed to fit the 6 gallon size Fluval Edge. ...but just to be sure they haven't change the size since I bought mine, you should measure yours. The design is completely parametric so minor adjustments will be straight forward.

I have also created a version with louvers in the top for ventilation, but I have found these to be unnecessary, so I haven't printed that version. If you're interested, let me know and I'll upload that one too.

The Snapmaker black filament matches the original equipment nicely. The model prints stringy on my printer which I cleaned up in post. No big deal, but you do want to make sure you clean that up so it doesn't get into the tank.
