Grow Mediums Where to get new hose

[Clarky]

Hey guys. Anyone know of a place to buy more of the 1/4" hose at a decent price? I already tried all the hydro outlets close to me including canadian tire, home hardware, lowes, home depot and various fish stores. Can find clear hose but def need black. Thank you in advance.

Have you checked out Amazon? I don't know what amazon.ca carries.

Do you know if that hose is the soft rubber like material that the autopots use? Come across hose in the correct size and colour but am worried the hard plastic wont create the seal I need at the reservoir.

Not certain, but I have purchased similar and it was soft.

I’ve purchased some on Amazon that was too soft and finally went back to the designer, Autopots, and purchased the proper hosing. It’s not that bad. I purchased 10 of these:

And there was a note you could leave on the order form, which I did.

I really would appreciate if you would give me one fifty foot length of 1/4” pipe rather that ten 5 foot pieces. ​

So, for $14 they sent me a 50 foot roll which is actually cheaper than the price per foot of their big 164 foot roll. Don’t anyone tell them.

I found some at an aquarium store eventually. It is pretty flimsy but I think it will work. Cost me about $20 for 40'.

Hi Clarky! I got some hose from my hydro store, but it was rather stiff. I soaked the end in hot water for a few minutes and it got soft.

The problem with that flimsy stuff is when something accidentally presses up against it you will have no flow. Not sure how well they will flush if you get a clog either. I finally threw the stuff I got from amazon away.

The amazon hose was hard. I still have some. Need to toss it.

Here is the real deal. Cheap too.
