I personally use all PVC for all my plumbing with very few exceptions. I am considering using flexible PVC but I don’t like flexible tubing. I have never had a leak with PVC and way too many with flexible tubing.

I have found the best way to connect a pump is with PVC and a fitting with Silicone on the threads. The Silicone flexes with the pump and no leaks. Plus it is removable and last so much longer than Teflon tape or the PVC to tubing method.
