I know a lot of people have success with Krylon Fusion. Just make sure you clean the pvc well before painting, or you might have adhesion problems (I didn't, so I did)

Is this going in the tank or outside? I also used the fusion black paint on all of my plumbing and it held fine(without cleaning a thing) But if going in the water am not sure if it will work.

Yes it was going in the tank. Unless somebody knows where to get black rigid pipe in 1/2".

When I helped set up a store in Vegas, the only paint we used was krylon fusion. It is reef safe, and can go in the tank. We painted all of our plumbing black with it. Hope this helps!

I agree on krylon fusion. just let it dry for 24-48 hours first

You might scuff the pipe with some fine sandpaper a bit to make sure it adheres well.
