Customisable Aquarium Overflow - Self Primed Water Bridge

thingiverse

Adjustable Overflow Siphon Water Bridge. I designed this to empty my fish tanks. It will empty to the inlet height and stop, perfect for your automatic water changes! Prints with no Support or infill!!!!! All you need to do is adjust the parameters to suit your needs and export mesh :) To prime the water bridge, you just need to submerge and tilt back and forth until no bubbles come out. The draining will start once the inlet goes below the waterline. Design can also be used to bridge between tanks. e.g. if you want to do a 30% water change, your tank is 300mm high, glass is 9mm thick and the drain hose you have is 26mm internal diameter. Adjust parameters as follows: - 'overall height' to 160mm - 'water height' to 100mm - 'Inner thickness' to 15mm - 'Glass Thickness' to 10mm - 'Tube Diameter' to 26mm - 'Overall Depth' to 25mm Inspired from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3618971
