Anything more flexable than flex PVC?

[Im Lon 2]

Looking at how I have to do my drains to the basement I'm having a problem using flex PVC it will not give me the bends I need that quick, and if I was to get the bends that quick I think it would put to much pressure on my bulk heads, possibly causing the tank to crack down the road.

I really don't want to use standard PVC but right now it is looking like I might have too. Both of my overflows are in the middle of a 6' tank. the cold air return is next to the edge of the stand and my tank is 37" high. Not enough room for the flex the way I need it to with out putting pressure on the bulk heads

Any thoughts?

Use flex where you can and normal PVC where you must!

What if you heat it with a heat gun or hot water (I thought the heat gun was much easier) bend it, then cool it, then glue it in place. That should take off the pressure.

Does that really work?

I was thinking about what Greg said.. If I was to use two 45° I think I can make it work a lot easier and plus it will save me some money not using all Flex..
