My first question is about 3d printing.

I am up to speed on food safe/grade fillament, but what about the machine does everything, the fillament touch need to be food grade? Tube between spool and print head as an example? Already have stainless nozzles. Is the small ptfe tube food safe? Just how picky do I need to be to be safe? A friend is building a large tank I would hate to wreck it.
Will be binging all the info on here for next few days. Cheers.

I use PETG on a Prusa mini. Nothing else was changed out to make things for my tank.
