Are you like me and annoyed by the RS ATO pump falling over in your ATO reservoir? Print this up, slide it on with the notches over the labels on the so you don't rip them then drop the hole setup into your ATO res. If the holder isn't quite tight enough just spin it a tiny amount until it tightens up on the label. I have been considering designing it with suction cups since this kinda moves around when there is enough water in the res.

Nice work. Thanks for the link to the .STL file!
 
That’s handy I have mine pulled by the cord to keep it upright. For the money it should be able to sit without falling over.
That is what I was doing for a while but it has become frustrating to me. I do agree, it should be sitting just fine on its own. Do other ATOs with this pump style have problems?
 
Quick question…what type of material is best used for this? I don’t want chemicals leeching into the aquarium.
 
I just ASA, which should be safe like ABS. PLA should also work, just make sure no glitter or silk modifiers added.
