This may be extremely obvious, but I can’t seem to find anything on it. Has anyone had any success or tried to replace a Red Sea return nozzle with the flexible nozzles they can be directed in any direction I’m not exactly sure what they’re called.
 
I have one I had to wrap some teflon tape to get it to stay as my wife bought it for me two Christmas ago. I’m sure they make one that fits with no modifications. I’ll see if I can find it. It’s a dual duck beak. It works a lot better than the stock ones that come with the tank.
 
It took some modification but it works.

Ya that’s exactly what I’m looking for. One with a Y but Red Sea isn’t listed on the compatibility list on any that I find. Compounding, the issue is the fact that red sea doesn’t seem to list dimensions on half the stuff that they have on their plumbing. So I can’t even try to Jerry rig it.
 
I believe I cut the factory single end were it goes into the return so it literally was just an insert joint. when I was done and teflon taped it just for my own sake to make it a little more snug.
 
50 bucks is worth the experiment I guess! Thanks for the advice!
 
This is going on a 900 so I need two. The return is the same size as my 200. I think all red seas have the same size.
 
Omg this is what I’m looking for how have I missed this? Sometimes I think the internet is to big.

Haha it indeed is.

But yea can use with or without the nozzles. I used them to convert the outlet to lockline.
