This is the Air Rock Extraterrestrial or Air RockET for short. Jokes aside, this is an air rock used in aquariums to help oxygenate your tank so the fish can breathe better and not have to stay close to the top of the tank. I found most air rocks to be very boring and plain so I decided to do something about it by making this little rocket ship to add a blast to your decor and keep your little friends healthy at the same time! Plus, it doesn't even have to be a rocket and can be anything from a submarine to a fish to an airplane.
1: Make sure you have an air pump, clip, and connecting tube at the ready.
2: As a rule of thumb 1 rock for every ten gallons of tank capacity.
3: Choose between 0.8, 0.6, and 0.4mm hole sizes (in the pictures pink and gold are 0.8 green is 0.6 and blue is 0.4) for different bubble sizes
4: If you print more than one than space them apart to not have an imbalance of oxygen in the tank
I used these settings when printing the rockets:
0.2mm nozzle diameter
0.1mm layer height
No brim
70mmp/s print speed
35% Infill
Printed in food grade PLA on ELEGOO Neptune 3 Pro
