Hey everyone! So earlier this year I went hard on my filtration for my 125g.

I used to have 2 AC 100s with my FX6, but switched out the 110s for a penn plax max flow, which has honestly been great (and I got a stupid good deal on it haha). The only issue is the outflow, I'm not a fan of just having a simple tube. Have any of you bought different outflow parts for this filter? The spray bar that came with it was honestly impossible to set up due to how stiff the tubes were, does an alternative exist?

Thanks!
 
Can you take some measurements of the intake/outflow of the canister and also of the tubes? Some pictures would be helpful too.

Clear Vinyl hose is available in an array of sizes at most hardware stores and is my go-to for this kind of application. You can attach literally any kind of spraybar or nozzle so long as you get the proper size barb fitting/adapter and pipe
clamp.

But if you can determine the size of the outflow tubing you may be able to find a nozzle or spraybar that you like and just use the same tubing.
