I was wondering if was ok to use PVC as homes or hiding places for fish? Will it leach anything bad into the water? :help:
 
No, in fact I used PVC for a custom filtration system. Just make sure you rinse it decently before you put it in.
 
As a general rule, if it's safe for potable water, it's safe for fish. Elbows and TEE's make great decoration if used tastefully.

Avoid at all coast using electrical grade PVC. (conduit) It's not safe for either humans or fishies.
