Hey guys rebuilding my loop and im going to go with clear tubing this round and would like to use a dye. I have read horror stories for all companies, and I see some dyes don't work with certain pumps, res, etc. I have a mcp35x with the res attachment, im looking to go with a blue or red I will be using primochill clear tubing.

Dyes are bad, use colored tubing. Many posts here over the years of clogs, stains, and overheating.
Distilled and a biocide.
If you must though, look up Mayhems (member here), many choices. Even he says it's not the best for a 24/7 rig.
All stock for now, no need for more, but it's gonna be soon methinks.

No he doesn't. He said that the Aurora lineup is not to be used 24/7.Originally Posted by Conumdrum
Good dyes to do not cause overheating or clogging or gunking. That issue is w/ the plasticizer leeching out of most tubing.
Stick w/ Mayhems and stick w/ Primochill LRT Advanced or Duralene for tubing.
which have you used of mayhems or have you used other types? I saw some of your posts looks like the pastel stuff he sells?
I saw you used ice dragon too how did you get it that blue?

Mayhems pastels are Ice Dragon + distilled + dyes + biocide. I have a ton of Ice Dragon so I just mix my own.
I've used blue, purple, red and soon to be green.
