Just finished plumbing my sequence dart pump to my closed loop system. Finally found the small air leak in the pvc on the intake side of the pump. for a while the tank looked like a jacuzzi. Anyway, I don't like the look of the white pvc poking in to the top of the water. I've read in some threads that there is clear pvc available. I need about 21" of clear 1" pvc. Anyone know where you can purchase this locally?

If you cant find clear PVC why not paint it black.

That's the next option. I'll do a search about tank safe paints. Thanks.

savko.com has clear pvc and black pvc. The site says you need to order a min of 5 feet. I was just down there for a large order and they are great. Call and see if they will get you just what you need.

Would't you get algae growth inside of clear pvc?
