Got the tank back from RC and it looks great. Ran into a hiccup with the plumbing though. Couldn't find 1 1/2 inch pvc at either rona or home depot, which is the size of the overflow. Was able to find all that was needed in ABS plastic but I didnt know if that would work. Everything in my minds says that it should work fine for the overflow because its not running pressurized. But i have not seen pictures of anyone using it for any of their plumbing. Would ABS pipe work?

Thanks.

ABS will be fine. Most dont use it because the selection of fittings is pretty lacking
