Join us Saturday, January 2, 2027 for our monthly meeting and auction.Title: 3D Printing for the Aquarium Hobby
Presented by: Lowell Dunnaway
Talk Description: This talk is a brief introduction to 3D printing as a means of producing tools for aquarium use, explained largely by telling the story of the first products I worked on.
Speaker Bio: Lowell has had a lifelong fascination with aquatic animals and kept both tropical and native Californian species throughout his childhood. As an adult, an unexpected spawn introduced him to breeding fish; a pursuit that now dominates his free time. In 2020, Lowell created a YouTube channel (Lowell’s Fish Lab). The channel seeks to document the reproductive behaviors of species available in the aquarium hobby as well as methods that might be used to facilitate successful spawns. In early 2022, Lowell began development of a 3D printable, air-powered enclosure for safely housing larval and juvenile fish. After much testing and revision, the enclosure is now in use by fish breeders around the world.
