So, I'm re-plumbing my sump/fuge to a bigger tank in a different room, through a wall. I was using pvc to drain and small amount of pvc to mostly vinyl tubing to return, which seems to be what a lot of people do.
Is there a reason why people use pvc to drain rather than vinyl tubing? Vinyl tubing is just so much easier to bend and turn without using joins (I may order spaflex for this reason). Just curious, why use PVC instead of vinyl tubing to drain (or return for that matter)? Is it to avoid the narrowing of the barb fitting when draining?
Thanks.
