I was considering that. A few arches in the middle that were 0.12 mm should be enough I'd think. That would add a few grams and maybe another 10 - 15 minutes.
significantly less than generated supports would. just make sure you have "print thin lines" enabled.

My job for the technical discussions is to emoji Like to keep the Thread on first page!
LOL
A noble profession, that. But don't forget to ensure we are not serious too long. 3 to 5 posts tops before nonsense must ensue.

Well, we're printing!
She's not going to be beautiful but hopefully she'll be functional.

I had to use an airline tube to stop the noise and I had to throttle the ball valve on the return line. Even with that it occasionally "gulps" into the sump if that's what you mean.
Yeah i finally had time to get some water in this tank and when I got it going in the sump it was gulping a lot and I added the airline tube to the top as well. I did notice a lot of water going into the emergency drain pipe since it’s so close the inlet. But will try throttling again.

So it was 3 hours left in the print and we left the house to visit my mother-in-law in the hospital. Pulmonologist official diagnosis: Stuff in her lungs.
It was working decent when I left but I hadn't gotten to the steeper angles yet.

Really? I don't think mine gets to the emergency drain. You may have it throttled too much?
Yeah it seems really loud in the back overflow from where the water goes in the back area. But not sure on the throttle helping as when the water from the tank drains it flows almost right into the open pipe drain

It could be the return pump is too big?

Well, i got a little bit of tank maintenance done today. Most of the work was done on the Betta tank for the bay boy but I did wash and scrape the front glass on the Mariner.
Tank is putting along nicely. I need to bring the alkalinity down though: currently sitting at 10.2 and the other tank runs at 8.4-8.6. Once I get under or at 9.0 and phosphates are good I'll start moving over some of the "extra" frags. I'll probably try moving the clowns and one of the Cleaner Gobies at that point as well.
It's going to be a slow and steady transfer so I don't kill either tank.

Not the best at pictures (especially through curved glass) but here's a couple of the Bettas from this morning.
Baby Boy (Paradise or Mustard Gas suspected)
Paradise Female
The female is absolutely gorgeous in person and the male's colors are starting to show nicely. I love that shimmer in their tails and how the deep blue fades to black in her face.

They both are really blossoming - she is a stunner!
Slow and steady for sure! I Finally got some fish in mine today! But it’s been very difficult to not just start putting everything into it right away! I’m ready for this tank to be going 100%.
You take an after photo of the tank? And You have any updates on what you’re going to do to the wiring area?

No updates on the wiring yet. I'll likely make a fake wall to hide the wires and attach the two power strips to that. I just snowed the tank so it's cloudy right now. Most recent shot:
