Fusion Paint

[Big Goose]

Fusion fuses to PVC and is clamed to be "Safe".
I called the Mfg. last year and they said that they had not tested it under water.

Does anyone have SW experience?

I have used this on the backside of my tank before but never inside.
I know that doesn't answer your question though.

I plan on getting some sch80 piping when I redo some plumbing just because its already a dark color, if I can find some 1/2".

I ordered some black pvc pipe and fittings from savco so that I didnt have to paint the pipes inside of my tank - very reasonable prices and quick shipping ( I also ordered my spaflex from them) - I have also seen 8ball use pvc primer on pipes to help them blend in and I am sure he could give you more details.

I have used it in my 120 With success. I have also used it in the past with no problems. Just let it cure first and water test it before.

"......and water test it before."

What type of test?

I used in in the our 280 store to hide some of the return pipes in the tanks. Works great.

There is this epoxy paint that is specifically used for salt water aquaculture and it comes in a lot of different colors. Its from a company called Aquatic Ecosystems. Here's the link:

wow that stuff is kinda expensive compared to a $3 can of paint lol.

Suppose I should have said cure it before, let it cure before chucking it into your tank. Though I have thrown it in after drying in a couple of hours.

I let it dry for 24 hours several weeks ago and nothing died!!!
I got the "River Rock" color and am pleased with it.

I started to buy the Clear paint also that shifts color.:bum:

I also used it on the pipes in my tanks. So far, so good. If possible, spray the main pipes before assembly and do the touch ups in the tank. Otherwise the overspray will go everywhere. (Yes speaking from experience the hard way. ......
