Been playing around and I have a prototype for a co2 scrubber. It’s massive, I think it may end up holding 3-3.5 lbs of soda ash.

My new tank is going to be apex Neptune themed for those who wonder about color choice.

I thought I recognized the print material, lol. Man! I'm decent with 3D Builder but I'm NOWHERE NEAR ready for CAD... Kudos to you, it looks good!

Reasonable is subjective, but there are lots of options on amazon, eBay and google.

I’m still hammering out the details on this one, but I will likely be selling them soon.

Very cool
Have you tested it out and see how efficient the media interact with the airflow?
I have an Icecap Medium (I believe about 2lbs of media). I noticed that it is more effective and efficient if I only filled it up 1/2 way. Of course I have to refill but the media are more evenly spent (color change), pH stay up higher and longer (vs. Completely filled)

I am still in the r&d phase. Trying to make proper fitment and seals. After I have that it will be a series of tests to determine the best way to make air flow through it evenly and properly.
