Need a different size? The listed variants are convenient standard sizes, not the limits of what we can make. Many designs can be resized in width, height and depth, and their proportions can be adjusted to better fit your enclosure. Small dimensional changes often do not materially affect the price. Custom pricing depends on the finished dimensions and any separate printed sections required. Message Molten Modern with your enclosure dimensions for a custom quote.

Good to know

• Anchoring in an aquarium: Bond the base to a flat stone or acrylic sheet with aquarium-safe silicone, or with hot glue or cyanoacrylate superglue specifically suitable for aquarium use. Follow the adhesive manufacturer’s surface preparation and full curing instructions before placing it in the aquarium. Where the design allows, a few small holes through the underside into enclosed air pockets let water in and air out, reducing buoyancy.

You receive a physical 3D-printed item. Plants, substrate, enclosure and display accessories are not included, except for components explicitly listed above. Position securely and keep clear of direct contact with heat sources.

• Measure the inside of your enclosure before ordering, and leave a little room for installation.
