camtang Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 I am looking for some flexi pipe similar to fx5 pipe. I want it to go in a sump as the way the tank/sump is set up means the current pipe gets pinched so is restricting flow. Any ideas of a place to get it or something that will do the same job? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F15hguy Posted February 1, 2013 Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Aqua one produces a good quality flexi pipe, most petstores can order it in, some garden centers may have it already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camtang Posted February 1, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 1, 2013 Was trying not to pay name brand prices if I can avoid it. is there a certain type of plastic that has to be used or can any plastic be used safely for fish?

Flosty Posted February 2, 2013 Report Share Posted February 2, 2013 What about some clear flexible tubing,you can get it from bunnings and hose clamp it to your pump/pipe that is what I use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flosty Posted February 3, 2013 Report Share Posted February 3, 2013 If you mean the pot scrubbies?, I got them from briscoes but that was 4 years ago so not sure if they still have them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
