Modular and parametric internal aquarium filter enclosures require a pump. Edit - added the nozzle and spin ends as examples - they demand a pipe, which I didn't upload because it would need to be sized to whatever pump is used. I created several write-ups about experimenting with 3D printing interior filters. The latest post can be found at: https://smolderingdiode.com/3d-printed-aquarium-filters-part-3-medium-filters/ Filter bodies are OpenSCAD designs and the pump connectors were created in Tinkercad. The pump connectors have to be designed to fit each pump. The example .stl files are for pumps that I purchased at the following: small pump connector.stl - goes with a 160 gph pump found here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/90-1450-GPH-Aquarium-Fish-Tank-Fountain-Submersible-Water-Pump/253979919126 pump connector.stl - goes with a 160 gph pump with a less complex interface, found here: https://www.ebay.com/itm/160-1600-GPH-Adjustable-Submersible-Water-Pump-Aquarium-Fish-Fountain-Hydroponic/252186482181 The pipes, outflow ends, and pump connectors will be added later. I've been using PETG 3D printed pumps for about a year and a half now. They're holding up well so far.
