Paint in aquarium

[Catfishguy721]

Hey guys,
Just picked up another tank. 150 gallon and I am setting it up with PVC for the inlet and outlets of the tank. The tank is not drilled so it has to have all the filtration over the top. I wanted to know if there is any paint I could use to paint the PVC to be black and less ghetto?

Krylon Fusion spray paint...or just use ABS pipe (which is black) instead of PVC. I would just use ABS pipe if I were you...a lot easier to not have to deal with the mess of spray painting.

It's not toxic...I used it on my durso standpipes when I set my tank up two years ago and my fish have been fine, but if I had known about ABS pipe, I would have just used that and saved a bunch of time and the cost of the paint.

Fusion looks great but will chip if you are not careful. I second the abs idea, had to repaint a 4' spraybar due to scraping occured when removing it for maintenance and it was worse than building from new.
