PVC braided vinyl tube vs. Clear braided PVC tubing
Looks like 2 of the same thing to me. The second one does appear to be *better* reinforced than the other, less likely of kinking. Am I missing something? Sometimes my logic is faulty, so I thought I'd check with the experts before I used it for my return.
Thanks.
 
You are correct.. the braided tubing won't kink. Its why I like using it over the normal stuff.
 
Something to think about is all flexible PVC releases phthalates over time which can play havoc with behavior and asexualism in inverts especially in smaller systems. Just my .02
