    Can I Use Kinked Vinyl Tubing?

    I just got my 25ft order of black 1" vinyl tubing from Marine Depot to setup my 180. The problem is it's kinked at both the left & right sides of the circle it's wound in. Every single piece. One piece is a 90° kink. I figured I'd try theirs. I usually go with the Lee's Black Pond Tubing, but...
