Can anyone tell me the right type of tubing to use for Black water...
 
White, impermeable to odor hose as made by Saniflex, Shields and others. It ain't cheap but it will not stink due to odor migration.

Welcome aboard. I recommend using Raritan SaniFlex hose. It is very flexible. Defender sells it by the foot. No affiliation.
 
Raritan SaniFlex hose RaritanSaniFlex hose has proven to be 100% odor permeation resistant--even has a 10 yr warranty against it--and has the added advantage of being so flexible that it can be bent almost as tight as a hairpin without kinking, which makes most re-hosing jobs a LOT easier. Defender has it for <$10/ft and sells it by the foot. Available in 1.5" and 1".

You can get away with using Shields or Trident flex PVC #148 (the cheapest sanitation hose) for the toilet intake line.


Are you installing a new tank or replacing hoses?
