Sorry for the undoubtedly beginner question - I’ve bought a reefmat, which has a 32mm hose. My return pipe is 20mm - see pic. At the moment I’ve put the return pipe into the hose which is working, but obviously temporary. Question is, what adaptor/connector do I need to plumbthe bottom of the return valve into the reefmat? Thanks so much.

Just need a reducer and a small section of pipe to go in the union on the reef mat. Not sure what sizes you will need because the measurements I'm used to are bald eagles and big macs, but just a reducer to go from 32mm to 20mm.

Just be sure to measure the outside diameter of your drainpipe and the inside diameter of the union on the reef mat to get proper size.
