Nitro fuel can use silicone tube but gasoline will eat the silicone slowly. For gas, either tygon or neoprene would work.

Both are available on amazon.
Silicone line is used in fish tanks as well.
Neoprene fuel line should be available on amazon

I dont think aquarium air tubes are usable for rc kind of fuels, i have tried once

saurabhhsrivastavaa

Well, they are silicone tubes... If the ID and OD matches, then there shouldn't be any problems using it. Even if they don't last long, they ain't that expensive to replace either.

Aquarium Tubes are not silicon, nor are they heatproof

It's very well to say one can always change them, but there is a possibility a failure in a tube will lead to a stalled engine, which could have severe consequences. As Silicon tube is ~ 200-250 per metre, it will cost you about Rs. 100 per model. Small price to pay fo security

Agree sir...

Not all aquarium tubes are silicone... Now most of the aquarium tubes are Vinyl plastic. Gone are the days when silicone tubes were used... But you still get silicone tubes in pet shops. Though most of the places it has been replaced by cheap vinyl.

By replacing the tubes I meant was easier for cars. As I am now more into cars and boats, I never realized that a broken tube in the air could be a disaster... Point taken...
