Sticks are just straight pieces of tubing that is not rolled up. It's easier to use than the rolled up vinyl.

Just left there and Lowes. There isn't a single piece that seems to fit either of them. It's driving me insane. Anyone in Ft Myers willing to come plumb this thing before i throw it out the door?
haha.
So you are saying the white adaptor ends are not standard pvc pipe sizes?
So I'm about to go crazy. I've tried every tube pipe flex hose spa airline and junction at Home Depot and loses, and nothing fits these. I'm seriously not an unintelligent guy, why is this so hard for me?? I know what goes where but cannot find anything to fit...
are the flex hoses bigger or smaller? I was thinking if you can not find anything fits perfectly, use the one a bit bigger. put the regular hose on over the bar, this will make it bigger then have the flex house on top of the that......The drain is easy. The return pump you need to make sure it is tighten enough!
On the threaded end of this pump (output), I can find an adapter that says it's a 1/2 female to 3/4 male. But then what? I now have a 3/4" PVC pipe that still doesn't fit anything. Ugh.
For the flex hoses- they're way too long. I need them about half size. I'm thinking about cutting it and just hooking it directly to the barbed part and then putting a clamp on it (although it would be a metal clamp).
What kind of pump is this? 1/2 male for the output? Unless we are doing for a nano tank, most return pump I have seen has 3/4 or 1 inch output ....

for the drain?
My 75 gallon tank came with that stupid plumbing kit too. Those bulk heads are ridiculous. I threw it all out and got my own bulk heads and plumbing parts.
Can you tell me EXACTLY what you used?
I think you guys are right. These tubes are definitely not what I wanted. I also wasn't too sure about using PVC, but I have to do this right.
Well so I measured my current pipes. One bulkhead says 3/4" and the pipe that goes in it is, low and behold, 3/4".
The other bulkhead says 1". The pipe that goes in it? 1 & 1/4". The pipe? 1 & 1/4" what the heck?
So I'm looking at BRS and thinking about ordering 2 bulkheads from them. Since I already have the drain pipes and return pipes that go inside the aquarium, the drain measuring 1 & 1/4 and the return measuring 3/4", should I just get those two sizes?
The 1 1/4 stand pipe should have a reduser at the bottom so that it fits into a 1 inch bulk head.
