Searching for very specific PVC parts

kingfisherfleshy · Oct 17, 2015

Im building a structure that will act as the support for the aquascape in my ten gallon aquarium.

It will also have a pump built into the base of it - and holes drilled into it for circulation.

Id like the piping to be as slender as possible (less than an inch), black or dark in color, and heres the kicker - come in a variety of slip connections.

Here are the parts I am looking for:

And end caps

Thanks if anyone has a lead on this!

Colored fittings are found in furniture grade PVC Since this is inside a tank should not be an issue.

Nothing strange about "furniture grade" PVC is there?

I will be able to use regular PVC glue on it, correct? I am most likely going to be pushing a decent amount of water through this thing.

If so I think I have exactly what I need. Now to get a quote.

All the plumbing on my 300dd is from C&S. Used black for the returns and blue for the drains. When I used them they were out of a lot of the different pipe connectors. Instead of waiting for them to make or get them in I use Krylon Fusion for plastic and painted them what color I needed. http://www.krylon.com/products/fusion-for-plastic/

Thank you, although since this will be going in the tank, I am going to want them to be black rather than using paint.
