So i am planning on running my skimmer air intake outdoors. The problem is I probably have a good 40 feet or so. I can probably go either 1/2 or 3/4 pvc. Is that going to work? Or do I need to use an airpump?
Is there an airpump that sucks air inline instead out from the body like an aqualifter? So that i can keep the airpump indoors. Away from the elements or doesnt matter if i make a box outdoors?

pvc would work.
