Hi, to put it simply I've no idea where to get this stuff. Online there seems to be a min. order of about 5 metres which is far too much, so anywhere online where I don't have to order loads would be good - or even shops to go!

Thanks
 
try wikes or BandQ but honestly i have no idea :S what is it for may i ask?
 
Ah, good idea. I think I'll have to, the only problem is when postage costs about 100% of the product price =/
 
I just got 5 meters for £ 5 inc postage, always comes in useful in the hobby and if you factor in petrol money to get to your LFS it a winner :good:

I ended up getting 6 metres for... £5-6, I can't remember now. I walk :p

In any case I do need some larger bore pipe for a syphon so I'll probably be on ebay anyway.
 
i always buy it from a local fish retailer one that is not part of a chain like a independent one as they can cut it to a specific cm and my local one only charges 50p a m

Not sure if it help but SSG in Shipley have Nylon tubing and Poly Tubing in all sizes - you can get about 25m for that price... and if you say you want a sample you may be able to blag a metre ot two for free!

Any model shop that sells remote control aeroplanes and cars. It is used for the fuel supply pipes.
 
When I siphon water, I just use a bog standard hosepipe. Works a treat. Not sure if that'll cut it for the CO2 system, but it'll be fine for a siphon.
