Where can I find a 3/4 ID siphon tube that can be used in an overflow box? The only tubes I ever see are 1 1/8.

thanks

Make your own!! Just get some 3/4 clear acrylic and fill with sand then use a heat gun and bend very slowly. They also make springs for bending soft copper tube. A 1/2 copper spring bender will fit nicely into 3/4 acrylic tube. About $8

You can also use the oven set at 350 for a few min. Makes acrylic, and pvc very flexible.
