Pumps

i need some help with my return pumps from my sump to my tank i used soft black tubing i have read that pvc pipes are better the tank isn't filled yet and i wanted to know which is better to have

 

really depends on pump and aquarium size . I ran a 90 for many many yrs with a Rio 2500 and a tube up to the coralife U return pipe

 

its a 125 and i use mag7 pumps with 3/4 black rubber tubing i want to know if pvc pipe is better

 

ok if it were me, I would go with pvc. No reason other than that's all I have ever used

 

I run a mag 1800 on my 125 and I run two 3/4 in feeds back to tank from sump and 2. 1 in. drains from tank to sump. You do have this tank drilled and what they call reef ready ? I HOB overflow will never do the job or will the Mag 7. thats a 55 gal pump.

 

brand new aga 125 with build in overflows and a fuge plumbed in (with pvc pipe) to the sump

 

You can also use flex PVC
