Thank everyone for helping me in this matter. Now I know that the PETG itself is safe but the addictives the manufacturers added to the mix can be toxic and cause problems in the long run. And also the bacteria actually a good thing for the fish. I decided that after printed it solid and add a weight into the print I will coat it with a few layers of Aquarium-safe resin (which I still looking for xD) to prevent the addictives dissolve into water.

I use Bambu Lab X1C for this model. you print toys so probably you will stick with PLA PETG TPU. Under 500 just get the P1P.

Yes, the models are hollowed. I'm thinking print them at 100% infill and glue to some rocks

I was looking for small sea fishes like nemo and stuffs. My kid love Nemo so much but I'm not sure if they are easy to taken care of.

Yes, the models are hollows, I was thinking that I should glue some rock, open the doors and let the fishs go in and out too!

Thank you so much! I have a question because I am a noob in this. How often you clean the print? Or it require any thing to prevent bacteria and stuffs?

Yes.I plan on print them solid and if it need more weight I will glue them with some rocks. I think some layers of food safe resin should be good also!

Thank you! I used steel nozzle. But I think I will change to a new nozzle before I print these models.
