Fluval Evo 13.5 Filtration Upgrade - Media Basket Design & Creation

In this video, I upgrade the filtration on the Fluval EVO 13.5 all-in-one reef aquarium by 3d printing a custom set of media baskets. The media baskets got completed about 5 months ago but I have not had a chance to make a video about this until now. On a positive note, I get to show you the design, creation, and installation of these media baskets and I also get to give you a 5-month update. This Fluval Evo 13.5 filtration upgrade is working really well but since completing these media baskets I have already started on a much better upgrade that is coming soon. Watch till the end of the video if you would like to get a sneak peek of this future project. Checks out the video to see the entire design and build process.

I have not made the files for these media baskets available yet because they have several flaws that need to get resolved first. If you would like access to the files please subscribe and stay for a future upgrade on this project.
