Flexible brs reactor tubing?

[Be102]

I have the brs upgraded reactor. It came with black 1/2 tubing. However it’s extremely hard and non flexible at all. I can’t do anything with it... I saw brs has an upgrade kit however it has horrible reviews in regards to leaking and disconnecting.. plus $25 for some soft tubing and some leaky connectors isn’t my idea of what to get. What will fit in it? I’d love to mount my reactor behind my tank and then run the lines into the water. It’s currently sitting in the water.

If you have a menards or home depot near you, you could pick up a roll of rubber line and use that. I used that for a while for the return line on my tank. They have a multitude of different sizes.

$7 for a 10 foot piece

Hope this helps :)

I use the rigid BRS tubing but with 90 push connect fittings to make turns.

I used a heat gun to shape mine. Worked pretty good! You can make as many bends and curves as you want and shape it to exactly how you need it.
