Black PVC is a b***h to find. Fittings are even worse.
You can get 1/2" and 3/4" in 18" lengths from www.thatfishplace.com
There is another place that is wholesale only that sells it in longer lengths, I'll try and find the link.
The "black PVC" you find in most hardware stores is ABS, and usually no smaller than 1 1/2".
True PVC in smaller sizes is usually Sch. 80 PVC in a dark grey color.

Black PVC is ABS plastic. For some reason ABS pipestock floats but, the ABS fittings sink (elbows, Ts, etc.).

You would be better off checking at a family run hardware store or a contractor supply store. I have also seen it online, but depending on what you need, a contractor supply store would be the best.

Theres black PVC which im pretty sure is Scheduale 80 for High pressure applications. Most ABS is black an is the standard Scheduale 40 for up to 600PSI. The grey ABS is typically used as Electrical conduit, but can be used the same as normal Scheduale 40 PVC.
