Calcium Reactor Help

Hey Everybody, I need your help. My calcium reactor has a John Guest fitting on it for normal tubing, however I want to use a Maxi-Jet to supply the reactor and it uses 1/2" ID tubing. Does anybody know what I would need to connect the Maxi-Jet to the reactor? Thanks
Matt

You should be able to go to the Home Depot and find a speedfit union reducer that is 1/2" OD on one side and 1/4" OD on the other. I have my kalk reactor fed by a maxi-jet. The output of the maxi-jet slides right into the 1/2" speedfit union and the 1/4" hose comes out the other side and to the reactor.
