perforated pipe, where to buy?

[fungia]

i am looking for the perforated pipes. they are off white color, semi transparent. anyone know where to buy these? my lfs doesnt have them and home depot doesnt sell them, or at least i cant find them there.

also, do these get clogged easily? is there is a better strainer you would recommend to use on my overflow pipe??

is perforated pipe the right description? when i asked at home depot, the guy brought me to these huge black pipes with some holes drilled in them :lol:

corrigated (sp?) pipe. perforated has holes.

Marine Depot has it. But I just have a piece of PVC pipe that I cut slits in with a compound miter saw. Works like a charm!

You can also drill a whole bunck of holes in the PVC pipe for overflows as well.
