    Where to get very flexible aquarium hose?

    I'm currently rescaping my tank (already too late for CNY) and I want to change my green aquarium hose for something better and more flexible.

    Was wondering if the ADA clear hose is flexible? Or is there any other hose? The reason I want the flexibility is because I often have issues routing the hosing from the pipes to the filter. And the hosing hardens over time... I wonder if that's a natural occurance?

    year it harden over time, not sure whether due to age or clorox that I use . How about eheim, I found new eheim hose is quite flexible. I do not like to flexible, afraid it become bend easily.

    You use Chlorox to wash your hoses? You're daring man...

    I replaced mine with the stock hoses that came with my filter... maybe I'll give ADA Clear Hose a try in the future.

    flexibility shouldnt vary much IMO. the thicker the material used, naturally the harder it is what.
    Moved on from plants to predatory fishes, but still finding for inspiration for a 3ft planted tank.
