Hi,

In the US, PVC is readily available in most places and in lots of different sizes...unlike Canada. However, ABS is not readily available in the US, but ABS is readily in Canada.

ABS is perfectly safe - most "black" plastic hoods made by commercial companies are made from ABS. For example, the Hagen canopies are ABS. Many powerheads use ABS for their housing. So, it is relatively safe. I even used ABS to builder a skimmer [img]smile.gif[/img]

PVC is not popular in Canada because production of PVC is very toxic and not environmentally friendly.
