Pump/tube problem

Go to solution Solved by Rhizix,

Getting a pump top like this one can solve your problem I think

You can then use your fittings that are designed to be used for hard tubing. 

I'm currently in the midst of trying to build a new watercooled system, and I decided to go with some rigid acrylic tubing from Primochill. The pump I currently have my eyes on is the Swiftech MCP655. Later I realized that can't put solid tube over barbed fittings. So now I'm wondering if I should find another pump, use "normal" tube from the reservois to the pump, and from the pump to the next thing, or if there is some secret trick to making the acrylic tube fit onto the pump anyway by using some voodoo magic or a mod?

you can always get a pair of fittings and adapt rigid to tubing, then use a small piece of tubing to connect to the pump.

Don't use the MCP stock fittings. Get a interchangeable one.
