snail trap

thingiverse

I got rid of the pesky snail in my aquarium, and I could have easily bought one to do the job, but what would be the fun in that? Now my 3D printer has a new purpose - creating practical solutions. The design is simple: just a hole at the top for attaching fishing line and securing some food inside with a couple of knots, then simply drop it into the tank and wait for the snails to take the bait. It's a straightforward plan that gets results fast. After printing and testing, I'm happy to report that it works like a charm - within the first day, most of the unwanted snails were gone, and my aquarium is once again thriving.
