![]() I was wondering if there is a paint that I could use to paint my stand pipes that would be reef safe.. I went with tinted acrylic on my overflow, but I don't think its gonna be as dark as I would like. so wanted to painted the stand pipes black to blend in with the back pane of glass, which will be black as well.

![]() I have used kryon fusion in my tank before as many have with no problems. The only thing I found is that over time if its IN the tank, it starts to chip off.

![]() rylon Fusion would be best for pvc, but still have my doubts of it being completely reef-safe. Personally I don't think it would stand up over time.. but I could be wrong

![]() If you use two part epoxy paint it is safe. I made a few plywood tanks out of it and it worked great. Make sure to use it outdoors with excellent ventilation.
