Measure your glass and the outside of your airline tubing, choose how far down the inside you want it held and how many airlines, and we will cut a holder for that tank. It slides over the top edge of the glass, and each airline pushes in through a narrow opening into an upright channel on the inside of the tank. It prints upside down, with no supports.
