1" MPT to 1/2" barb fitting - where to find?

[puffy127]

I'm looking to hook my Two Little Fishies Phosban reactor to a manifold that has a 1" FPT. I cannot seem to find any 1" MPT to 1/2 inch barb adapters anywhere. I can find plenty of 1" MPT to 3/4 inch barb and I suppose I can then reduce the 3/4 inch barb down to 1/2 inch barb, but I would like to limit the number of connectors (potential points of failure). Anyone know where to find this or have any other ideas on how best to hook up my reactor?

You could use a reducer bushing and take it down to a 1/2" thread and just use a 1/2" mpt barb.

Thanks, that seems like my best option.
