Yes, the McMaster-Carr "Continuous-Flex Soft Tygon PVC Tubing for Food and Beverage, 3/16" ID, 5/16" OD" (item 5894K33), cut to 149mm, worked perfectly.

The only thing I have to do is re-calibrate the pumps. Re-calibrate as in I calibrated them after replacing the lines and they don't appear to be moving the same amount of water, so I need to calibrate them again or figure out if the problem is elsewhere (like a restricted line somewhere).

Can I triple check that everyone is still having good luck with the lower cost options? I think I’m about due to replace my tubing as well

Mine are still working and, according that post just above yours, it's been almost a year since I replaced the tubing it.
