Siddament Aquatic Blue PETG V2 — 1.75mm 1kg
Siddament Aquatic Blue PETG V2 — 1.75mm 1kg
Siddament Aquatic Blue PETG on a 1.75mm, 1kg spool. A UV-reactive blue that reads bright and clean in daylight and lifts under blacklight — which is why it keeps ending up in aquarium fittings and display pieces.
PETG sits between PLA and ABS. It prints nearly as easily as PLA but holds up far better to impact, moisture and chemicals, which makes it the sensible pick for functional parts, brackets, enclosures and anything that lives outdoors.

Sidd's notes
UV-reactive blue, perfect for fish tanks.
Keep parts under 68°C in active applications — that's the heat deflection point.
