    you want black PVC?
    go get a boiling pot, taller the better, get the black RIT dye, boil the water with the dye, dip the PVC into it, you got black PVC.

    WOW! This is an awesome idea! :D
    Cool to see how pipes with holes turned into such an interesting cave system! Works perfect in the tank :)
    Is that your own tank btw? And are there cichlids in it only?
