Plumbing help
I have a 40mm pipe coming from my zeo reactor that I can't for the life of me find any fitting for. The reactor came with an elbow and a tube which I've been using for the last year but I want to move some stuff around in my sump and that's all that's stopping me.
Anyone ever heard of 40mm pvc?

Isn't 40mm a bit over 1 1/2" ?

Yup, I first tried a 1 1/2 inch pipe but it didn't fit. Thought about getting the dremel out and making it fit. I might have to do that.

PVC piping is made in both "US" and "Metric" versions..
And of course they are different sizes.. 40mm is well... metric of course.. Kind of funny (to me) that you gave us a measurement in "metric" anyways..

We are one of the few who don't use metric only
