Manny Tavan Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) Plumbing my 40 mm metric primary overflow to the 1" intake of the clarisea is proving difficult. Are there any good source for PVC fittings, unions, barbed, reducer, couplings etc locally? Edited January 7, 2019 by Manny Tavan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazyreefer Posted January 7, 2019 Share Posted January 7, 2019 All things aquarium in Tigard has a ton of fittings and such I believe I would give them a call and see if they have what you need. Also saltwater obsessions is good at helping out with plumbing stuff in my experience. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewisriverfisherman Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Check with park rose hardware, they might be able to help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuncrestReef Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 Has anyone been to Clancy Supply? I haven’t tried them, but their web site says they stock PVC fittings. Might be worth calling them to ask if they have what you’re looking for: http://clancysupplyinc.com/pipe--nipples--fittings.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Tavan Posted January 8, 2019 Author Share Posted January 8, 2019 Just got off the phone with clancy. Their suggestion was to redo the entire plumbing in standard lol. I said no thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrabbyCrabs Posted January 9, 2019 Share Posted January 9, 2019 It would be nice if the tanks going to the US would be specd with pipe we can actually get eazy, it's not like China doesn't make both metric and imperial pipe/fittings. They probably do it to try and get you to buy from them though. Same with red sea. Online will probably be the only option, or custom turn blocks of plastic from tap or wherever. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Manny Tavan Posted January 9, 2019 Author Share Posted January 9, 2019 Found a 40mm/1.25” union. Then a 1.25 to 1” reducer. Then will do 1” slip barbs on both sides and connect it all with 1” hose. Best I would come up with given the limited overall length and need for flexibility. Ordered $50 worth of part online... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
