I bought aquaclear UV sterilizer 15 watt comes with 3/4 barb fitting so i bought 3/4 tubing and 256 gph pump syncra 1.0. Now the problem is the syncra 1.0 comes with 1/2 barb fitting and not 3/4 what should i do? Anyone knows where i can find that fitting looked everywhere
 
Yeah. Sicce uses some really frustating sizes because they're out of Italy. Our market has to be bigger, can we get US standard sizes please Sicce?!

The 1.0 shows 0.5" - 0.7" for Inlet - Outlet sizes.... Good luck. I'll follow because I've been through this as well...and look for alternatives to brs sometimes ;)

Not sure if you have a tractor supply local to you, but you can get a 3/4 to 1/2 barb fitting. I know this will require you to use a short section of hose from the pump to the fitting, but is an easy fix that way. There are also a ton of options for a barb reducer of that size on Amazon.
 
The problem I have is .7" is 7/10"; that's not quite 3/4"....frustrating imo
Get the vinyl hose hot with a heat gun or blow dryer and it will slide over it with ease.. once cool it’s on there for life lol..
