Silicone tubing for Dosing Pump?

[Jgoal55]

A dosing pump I bought came with silicone tubing. Can I use airline tubing instead?

if airline tubing had the same dimensions as what you need, maybe long enough for your replacement to come in. id assume the tube will start to collapse very fast and your dose rates will drop

What was the tubing used for? The rollers or afterwards?

thanks guys. in between container and roller....and then from roller to tank. That's what I need it for.

ended up finding 25ft of black silicone tubing at Petsmart for $2. Thanks all
