About this model

I needed a plant basket instead of just hanging the plants through the egg crate ( holes. I have 2 .stl files: Plant_Half is how I have it in my tank where the grid fittings are in line with the aquarium clips ( and I needed it to be cut in half. Plant_Full is the full 3 grids so if you don't plan on having the basket in line with clips then just use this one. Both are meant to be hung on the edges and thats why there's a lip to hold it on the lip of the aquarium ( There's 2 ways to print it (shown in the images). Print right way up for faster and less material used. Print upside down for a cleaner outer appearance since all the supports are just inside the basket, but it'll take longer and use more material.
