hey guys,


I purchased a reef dynamics skimmer from a member for cheap and I need to replace the pvc as it is cracked. I went to HD and a local hardware store and all of the schedule 80 and 40 pipes wall thickens is to thick.
I did a research online and found out its a class 200 3/4" pvc but I want to try and find it locally before I buy online. I only need a foot.

I'm not sure if anyone would carry it, but I'd try every hardware store... Home depot, lowes, menards, ace, etc. could probably call their plumbing departments.

I may have some, I'll check today when i get home. Just don't count on it... ;)

Try the Ace Hardware on Lake St. and Addison road in Addison. They carry all kinds of things you cant find anywhere else.

I check 3 stores and none have the class 200 3/4 I called bushnell in desplains and they said no but the guy might of been confused.
BBRT- the piece of pipe that connects the pump to the skimmer, I removed the old one just need a new pipe to glue in. If it works I think 20$ for a 200$ skimmer is worth it haha.

Yeah, around us is a Leep's Supply. They have ANYTHING you could want. Instead of a big box store look for plumbing specialties. They'll have everything, and for cheaper.

I went in to Leep's and they let me do a mock-up build right there. They even helped me reduce corners for better flow!

What about a plumbing supply house

That would be probably the best option. Royal Pipe and Supply is in Melrose Park on Lake St. one block east of 25th Ave on the south side of the street. Give them a call, they have everything. I'm not sure what plumbing supply places are out by you though.

thanks for all the help guys but it seems when I call most of the places around here, they never heard of a class 200 CL200 maybe I have the wrong name but I think I will just order online. I will try to call some more places tomorrow before work.

I've ordered from them several times. Only thing that sucks is shipping, increases based on dollar amount and no way to get free shipping. Great resource for hard to find stuff though. I'll be home in a few hours, and I'll let you know if i still have any.
