Anyone have black PVC?

[IffersTankSlave]

I'm looking for some 1" black PVC, a couple of 90's and connectors. Anyone have any or know where I can get some?

Usplastics.com has always been good to me. (Grey PVC, not actually black)

Thanks, Ed. I get all of my stuff through Savko... I didn't even think of them. Tank brain. My head feels like a coral!

Thanks Mr. HaHa. I'll probably order what I need and some extra Spaflex from Savko. I appreciate the offer.

I remembered hearing somewhere that jury was out on some of the black PVC leaching, so I ended up using Krylon Fusion black paint on my PVC that was inside the tank for my closed loop.

I copied the idea from Steve McNally, so I can't take credit for it, but it's worked really well. It was about $7 for the can, and I picked it up at Sherwin Williams.

Not too sure how Iffer would feel about painted objects in her new tank...

I just painted some pvc for my over the top closed loop. Looks great. I'd post some pics but the black pvc blends into the black background to much for you to see anything in the picture.
