I've been using 3/8ID 1/2OD pvc hose for the last year. No leaks or any other problems at all, apart from discoloration - the hose is a funky brown color, but still as flexible as the day I put it in.

icel0rd: I recommend using sprung steel hose clips on all barbed fittings. This gets a good firm grip on the barbs, with minimal chance for leaking. This goes for people using silicone hose as well.
